The derivative can be found by using the chain rule. i.e. let g(x) = |sin(x)|, so f(x)=ln(g(x)), hence df/dx = df/dg * dg/dx

df/dg = 1/g, dg/dx = |cos(x)| so df/dx = |cos(x)|/|sin(x)|

For th...

Implicit differentiation involves differentiating expressions for which it is difficult to rearrange into y in terms of x. It is important to note which variable is being differentiated by the other as, f...

For part i) we use the basic method of differentiation by considering each term individually. The first term, x³ goes to 3x² by multiplying the original term by the original power, b...

The heart consists of 4 chamber; left and right atria, plus left and right ventricles. The right atria recieves deoxygenated blood from the superior and inferior vena cava, delivering blood from the head ...

First you must write the function in terms on something you know how to differentiate, for example... by taking tan (..) of both sides the equation becomes, tan(y)= ax² +b. We then use implicit...
