Implicit Differentiation

If a quantity can be expressed in terms of a variable (or quantity) as

we say that is defined explicitly as a function of .

There are, however, many important circumstances where and are related by an equation

such that cannot be solved as a single explicit function of as above.

Le c t u r e 6 | 3

EX Suppose two quantities are related by the equation

If we try to solve in terms of , then

We get two functions and for . Plugging or for , then

EX The equation

gives the so-called the folium of Descartes: whose graph is as shown below.

The second figure suggests that there are 3 possible functions for that satisfy the equation. However, the formula may not be easy to write down!

Implicit differentiation

Inverse Functions

Given a function , a function is said to be the inverse function of if

Linear Approximation

Let be a function which is differentiable at . Then the following limit exists:

This means

Def The approximation

is called the linear approximation. The function

is called the linearization of at .

Differentials

For a function , is called an independent variable (i.e. it can take any value freely) and is called a dependent variable (i.e. its value depends on ). Def (Differentials)

Let be a differentiable function.

The differential of is a dependent variable (different from ) denoted by
