    Implicit Differentiation Worksheet

    Uploaded by

    Danel
    This document contains an implicit differentiation worksheet with 10 problems involving finding derivatives of curves expressed implicitly or parametrically, finding gradients and stationary points, classifying stationary points, finding equations of tangents and normals, and solving related differential equations. The problems progress from straightforward implicit differentiation to more complex tasks like finding maximum/minimum values, points where tangents are parallel to an axis, and deducing results about higher order derivatives.
