Throughout the problem, $\mathbb { R } ^ { 2 }$ is equipped with the canonical Euclidean inner product denoted $\langle$,$\rangle$ and the associated norm $\| \|$. Let $f$ and $g$ be in $\mathcal { C } ^ { 1 } \left( \mathbb { R } ^ { 2 } , \mathbb { R } \right)$ satisfying the Cauchy-Riemann equations: $$\frac { \partial f } { \partial x } = \frac { \partial g } { \partial y } \quad \text { and } \quad \frac { \partial f } { \partial y } = - \frac { \partial g } { \partial x }$$ We define two functions on $\mathbb { R } _ { + } ^ { * } \times \mathbb { R }$ by $$\forall ( r , \theta ) \in \mathbb { R } _ { + } ^ { * } \times \mathbb { R } , \quad \widetilde { f } ( r , \theta ) = f ( r \cos \theta , r \sin \theta ) \quad \text { and } \quad \widetilde { g } ( r , \theta ) = g ( r \cos \theta , r \sin \theta )$$
For all $( r , \theta ) \in \mathbb { R } _ { + } ^ { * } \times \mathbb { R }$, show that $\frac { \partial \widetilde { f } } { \partial r } ( r , \theta ) = \frac { 1 } { r } \times \frac { \partial \widetilde { g } } { \partial \theta } ( r , \theta )$ and $\frac { \partial \widetilde { g } } { \partial r } ( r , \theta ) = - \frac { 1 } { r } \times \frac { \partial \widetilde { f } } { \partial \theta } ( r , \theta )$.
