The Chain Rule & Implicit Differentiation · Challenge problem

At the point (1,1)(1, 1) a smooth function f(x,y)f(x,y) has fx=2f_x = 2, fy=3f_y = 3, fxx=4f_{xx} = 4, fxy=−1f_{xy} = -1, fyy=5f_{yy} = 5. Let u(r,θ)=f(rcos⁡θ,rsin⁡θ)u(r,\theta) = f(r\cos\theta, r\sin\theta). Find uθθu_{\theta\theta} at r=2r = \sqrt2, θ=π4\theta = \dfrac{\pi}{4}.
