(a) Find a formula for the single variable function . What is for this function? Find its limit as :
(b) Based on your work in (a), is the single variable function continuous? ? yes no
(c) Next, similarly consider .
(d) Based on this work in (a), is the single variable function continuous? ? yes no
(e) Finally, consider along rays emanating from the origin. Note that these are given by , for some (constant) value of .
Find and simplify on the ray :
(Notice that this means that is a contour of . Be sure you can explain why this is.)
Find and simplify on any ray .
(Again, notice that this means that any ray is a contour of ; be sure you can explain why.)
(f) Is continuous at ? ? yes no
