Implicit Differentiation Completely Explained!

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Explicitly explain how to use implicit differentiation. Using a trigonometric function defined using y and x, the resource works through an example of implicit differentiation to explain the process. The 19th video in a 31-part series continues to find the derivative using the product rule and solving for the derivative of y.
