Let $f : \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ be defined as
$$f(x,y)=\begin{cases}
(x^2+y^2)\cos \frac{1}{\sqrt {x^2+y^2}}, & \text{for $(x,y) \ne (0,0)$} \\
0, & \text{for $(x,y) = (0,0)$}
\end{cases}$$
then check whether its differentiable and also whether its partial derivatives ie $f_x,f_y $ are continuous at $(0,0) $. I dont know how to check the differentiability of a multivariable function as I am just beginning to learn it. For continuity of partial derivative I just checked for $f_x $ as function is symmetric in$ y $and $x $. So $f_x $ turns out to be $$f_x(x,y) = 2x\cos \left(\frac {1}{\sqrt {x^2+y^2}}\right)+\frac {x}{\sqrt {x^2+y^2}}\sin \left(\frac {1}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\right)$$ which is definitely not $0$ as $(x,y)\to (0,0)$. Same can be stated for $f_y $. But how to proceed with the first part? Thanks!

I use Euclidean Algorithm: 4620 = 101 * 45 + 75. long story short. I get 3 = 2 * 1 + 1. After that 2 = 1 * 2 + 0. gcd(101,4620) = 1. So I us...
