7 Implicit Differentiation

Implicit Differentiation Process


H1L Differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to x

H2L Collect the terms with ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ on one side of the equation
dy
dx

H3L Factor out ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ


dy
dx

H4L Solve for ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ


dy
dx

For problems 1 - 5, assume that the equation determines a differentiable function f such that y = f HxL, and find y ¢

1. y = 5 3 x ÄÄÄÄ3ÄÄ Ä + 2 2. 2 x - x y + y3 = 16

3. sin2 H3 yL = x + y - 1 4. y2 + 1 = x2 sec y

5. y = csc Hx yL
dy d2 y
6. Use implicit differentiation to find ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ and ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ for 3 x2 + 4 y2 = 4
