    Differentiation with respect to time or one of the other variables requires application of the chain rule, [1] since most problems involve several variables. Fundamentally, if a function F {\displaystyle F} is defined such that F = f ( x ) {\displaystyle F=f(x)} , then the derivative of the function F {\displaystyle F} can be taken with respect ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function

    In calculus, a method called 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.

    Suppose a function f(x, y, z) = 0, where x, y, and z are functions of each other. Write the total differentials of the variables = + = + Substitute dy into dx = [() + ()] + By using the chain rule one can show the coefficient of dx on the right hand side is equal to one, thus the coefficient of dz must be zero () + = Subtracting the second term and multiplying by its inverse gives the triple ...

    The unit circle can be specified as the level curve f(x, y) = 1 of the function f(x, y) = x 2 + y 2.Around point A, y can be expressed as a function y(x).In this example this function can be written explicitly as () =; in many cases no such explicit expression exists, but one can still refer to the implicit function y(x).

    Implicit differentiation gives the formula for the slope of the tangent line to this curve to be [3] =. Using either one of the polar representations above, the area of the interior of the loop is found to be 3 a 2 / 2 {\displaystyle 3a^{2}/2} .

  9. Trapezoidal rule (differential equations) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_rule...

    Suppose that we want to solve the differential equation ′ = (,). The trapezoidal rule is given by the formula + = + ((,) + (+, +)), where = + is the step size. [1]This is an implicit method: the value + appears on both sides of the equation, and to actually calculate it, we have to solve an equation which will usually be nonlinear.
