LEARNING TARGETS
1. I can Determine the derivative of
transcendental functions

2. I can solve problems on implicit differentiation

What is transcendental function

Transcendental functions are function that are not

algebraic and hence, cannot be expressed as a solution
of a polynomial equation.
