Since, $z=f(x,y)$ is a homogeneous function of degree n
$ \therefore z \;=\; x^n \phi \bigg( \dfrac{y}{x} \bigg) \; \; \ldots (i) \ldots $ {By Property of homogeneous function }
Differentiating equation (i) partially w.r.t. x,
$ \therefore \dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x} \;=\; \phi \bigg( \dfrac{y}{x} \bigg) \cdot n x^{n-1} \;+\; …
