Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 3- 6 Implicitly Defined Functions An implicit function is a function in which the dependent variable has not been given "explicitly" in terms of the independent variable. Implicit differentiation is especially useful when dy/dx is needed, but it is difficult or inconvenient to solve the equation for y in terms of x.

Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide Lenses, Tangents and Normal Lines In the law that describes how light changes direction as it enters a lens, the important angles are the angles the light makes with the line perpendicular to the surface of the lens at the point of entry (angles A and B in Figure 3.50). This line is called the normal to the surface at the point of entry. In a profile view of a lens, the normal is a line perpendicular to the tangent to the profile curve at the point of entry. Implicit differentiation is often used to find the tangents and normals of lenses described as quadratic curves.
