Tangent and Normal Lines for implicit curves are a line that touches the implicit curve at one point and has the same slope as the curve at that point. A normal to a curve is a line perpendicular to a tangent to the curve. tangent and normal

Differentiation of Implicit and Inverse ...
In calculus, a method of implicit differentiation, Makes use of the chain rule to differentiate implicitly defined functions. To differentiate an implicit function y ( x ), defined by an equation R ( x, y) = 0, it is not generally possible to solve it explicitly for y and then differentiate. The derivatives of inverse trig functions we’ll need the formula from the last section […]
