partial derivatives exist on R2 . For interior critical point, we have
f (x, y) = (0, 0) if and only if (0, 0) = (fx (x, y), fy (x, y)) = (y 1, x 1), i.e.
(x, y) = (1, 1).

Define the function
g(t) = f r(t) = f (cos t, sin t) = sin t cos t sin t cos t + 3, which is a
differentiable function of one variable on the closed interval [0, 2 ]. One can
use derivative test of one variable to find the maximum and minimum value of
g, and hence that of f . Here we skip the details for the sake of time.
