*<math>f_{22}(x_1,x_2) = \frac{\partial^2 f(x_1,x_2)}{\partial x_2 \partial x_2} = \frac{8 x_1^3 x_2^2 -2 x_1^3 -2 x_1 x_2^2}{(1+x_2^2)^3}</math>

*<math>f_{22}(x_1,x_2) = \frac{\partial^2 f(x_1,x_2)}{\partial x_2 \partial x_2} = \frac{8 x_1^3 x_2^2 -2 x_1^3 -2 x_1 x_2^2}{(1+x_2^2)^3}</math>

Note that <math>f_{12}(x_1,x_2)</math> equals <math>f_{21}(x_1,x_2)</math>, so that the order of taking the derivative doesn't matter. Though this doesn't hold generally, it's true for a great class of important functions.
