What is Implicit Differentiation?

Back

Implicit differentiation is a technique used to find the derivative of a function defined implicitly by an equation involving both x and y, rather than explicitly solving for y.

When do we use Implicit Differentiation?

Back

We use implicit differentiation when it is difficult or impossible to solve for y explicitly in terms of x.

What is the chain rule in implicit differentiation?

Back

The chain rule states that if y is a function of x, then the derivative of y with respect to x is the derivative of y with respect to u times the derivative of u with respect to x.
