Partial Differential Relations
If three variables, and are bound by the condition for some differentiable function, then the following total differentials exist
Substituting the first equation into the second and rearranging, we obtain
Since and are independent variables, and may be chosen without restriction. For this last equation to hold in general, the bracketed terms must be equal to zero.
