Let , and let the point , where , and are constants. In this problem we will calculate in two different ways, first by using the geometric definition and second by using partial derivatives.

(a) Consider a (three-dimensional) box with four of its corners at , , and , where is a constant edge length. Find the flux through the box.
flux =
Thus, we have
/

(b) Next, find the divergence using partial derivatives:
