Question

Find the derivative of sec
$\sqrt{tanx}$
​

Answer 1

The second derivative of an implicit function can be found using sequential differentiation of the initial equation F(x,y)=0. At the first step, we get the first derivative in the form y′=f1(x,y). On the next step, we find the second derivative, which can be expressed in terms of the variables x and y as y′′=f2(x,y).
