We only need to compute $g(x) = f(x_0) + J_f(x_0) \cdot (x - x_0)$, where both $x$ and $x_0$ are vectors (and $x_0$ is the point at which we compute the tangent space).
All there is left to do is state the space: $\{ (x, y, \ldots) \in \R^n | z = g() \}$

\shade{gray}{Computing a directional derivative} Always normalize the vector! We can compute a directional derivative using the differential $\limit{h}{0} \frac{f(x_0 + hv) - f(x_0)}{h}$
or using a $1$-dimensional helper function $g: h \mapsto f(x_0 + hv)$, calculating the derivative of it and evaluating $g'(0)$. That corresponds to the directional derivative.
E.g. for function $f: x, y \mapsto x^2 + y^2$, we have $g: h \mapsto (x_0 + h)^2 + (y_0 + h)^2$.
A final option is to compute it using a matrix-vector product: $D_v f(x_0) = J_f(x_0) v$
An \bi{easy option} is to use this property: $D_v f(x_0) = J_f(x_0) \cdot v = \nabla f \cdot v$
