6 The surface \(S\) has equation \(z = x \sin y + \frac { y } { x }\) for \(x > 0\) and \(0 < y < \pi\).
  1. Determine, as a function of \(x\) and \(y\), the determinant of \(\mathbf { H }\), the Hessian matrix of \(S\).
  2. Given that \(S\) has just one stationary point, \(P\), use the answer to part (a) to deduce the nature of \(P\).
  3. The coordinates of \(P\) are \(( \alpha , \beta , \gamma )\). Show that \(\beta\) satisfies the equation \(\beta + \tan \beta = 0\).
