All rights reserved Slide Partial Derivatives Section Summary Concluded For a surface and a point on this surface, the partial derivative of f with respect to x gives the slope of the tangent line at in the positive x-direction. Similarly, the partial derivative of f with respect to y gives the slope of the tangent line at in the positive y-direction. For the second-order partial derivatives are Often (but not always),
