[Solved] Find (dy)/(dx) for the circle x^2+y^2=4 by differentiating the explicit function of x : (assuming that we use the positive branch). This means


Question: Find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) for the circle \({{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}=4\)

  1. by differentiating the explicit function of x :
    (assuming that we use the positive branch). This means that
    \[y'=\frac{-2x}{2\sqrt{4-{{x}^{2}}}}=\frac{-x}{\sqrt{4-{{x}^{2}}}}\]
  2. by differentiating implicitly:
  3. Find where the derivative is positive, where it is negative, where it is zero and where it is undefined.
