On 10/20/16, we discussed how one can calculate the derivative of the inverse of a map [math]\displaystyle{ f: (0,1/2) \times (0, \pi/4) \to U \subset \mathbb R^2 }[/math] where [math]\displaystyle{ f(r, \theta) := (r \cos \theta, r \sin \theta) }[/math]:
Method 1. Find [math]\displaystyle{ f^{-1} }[/math] explicitly and differentiate it.
Method 2. Use the inverse function theorem.
