Everything about Implicit differentiation

Mathematical operation in calculus

In calculus, implicit differentiation is a method for finding the derivative of a function that is defined by an equation rather than by an explicit formula. If an equation such as defines as a function of, at least locally, implicit differentiation treats as a function and differentiates both sides of the equation with respect to. The method is an application of the chain rule. Wikipedia →
