Show a complex function is differentiable at 0
(Sorry for all the questions on this, I am really struggling with this and really appreciate all help.)
Show that the function
is differentiable at the origin.
So if
, then
.
To show that it's differentiable you have to show that the limit of the difference quotient exists at 0:
-f(z_0)}{\Delta z})
-f(0)}{\Delta z})
^2+(\Delta y)^2-0}{\Delta x+i\Delta y})
Is this the right way to start?

Hey Ragnarok.
Hint: You might want to try looking at the Cauchy-Riemann equations. Have you come across these in class?

Ah, we have covered the Cauchy-Riemann equations, though technically this problem is from a section before they are covered. I think it will work fine, though, thanks for the hint!
