Or take a bearing on the point, say 45 degrees then move along the line until the point bears 90 degrees then the distance from the line to the point is the distance you traveled going from 45 to 90 degrees.

Do you have videos in partial derivatives? If not are they going to be made? Thanks for reading my comment sir.

Yes we do. You will find them here: CALCULUS 3 CH 4 PARTIAL DERIVATIVES (from the home page)
