How would I use implicit differentiation to differentiate functions such as: y=tan^-1(ax^2+b) in the form of dy/dx=.....?

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)= ax 2 +b. We then use implicit differentiat...
