This video explains how Lagrange multipliers can be used to obtain the extreme values of a function subject to one or two constraints, including the behaviour of the gradient vectors at an extreme value (minimum or maximum), and worked example practice problems involving optimisation along a curve that may be formed by two intersecting surfaces.
