Parametric Differentiation
If x =g (t) and y =h (t) are two functions of t then y may be expressed as a function of x, say y = f(x), by eliminating the real variable t. Such a variable t is called a parameter. Also, x and y are said to be defined parametrically. The equations x =g (t), y =h (t) are called the parametric equations of y = f(x).

The process of finding \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) when x and y are defined parametrically, is called parametric differentiation.

Theorem:
Let x = g(t) and y = h(t) be two differentiable functions of t such that g-1 exists.
Then \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\left(\frac{d y}{d t}\right) /\left(\frac{d x}{d t}\right)\)

Implicit Differentiation
Let y be an implicit function of x defined by a relation of the type f(x, y) = 0. Then the method of finding the derivative \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) of such an implicitly defined function is called implicit differentiation.
In this method, we differentiate f(x, y) = 0 w.r.t x (treating y as a function of x) to get an equation of the type F(x,y, \(\frac{d y}{d x}\)) = 0.
By solving this equation we find \(\frac{d y}{d x}\).

Logarithmic Differentiation
If a given function is of the form y = f(x) g(x) where f(x) and g(x) are differentiable functions of x, we apply logarithms to transform it into a suitable form so as to find . This method of finding \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) is called logarithmic differentiation.
This method is also useful in finding the derivatives of functions which are products of a number of functions.

Theorem:
If y = f(x) g(x) where f(x) and g(x) are differentiable functions then \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) = f (x)g(x)[\(\frac{g(x)}{f(x)}\)f'(x) + g'(x)log f(x)]
Proof:
y = f(x)g(x), f(x) > 0
logy = g(x) log f(x)

Method of Substitution:
In the case of inverse trigonometric functions with typical arguments direct differentiation of the function to find the derivative may become quite tedious and cumbersome. In such cases the derivative can be easily found by using proper trigonometric substitutions and transformations. The application of this method is illustrated in the following examples.

Derivative Of One Function W.R.T Another Function
Let f(x) and g(x) be two differentiable functions with a common domain of differentiability then the derivative of u = f(x) w.r.t v = g(x) is given by
\(\frac{d u}{d v}=\left(\frac{d u}{d x}\right) /\left(\frac{d v}{d x}\right)=\frac{f^{\prime}(x)}{g^{\prime}(x)}\)

Second Order Derivatives:

Partial Differentiation
Let u = f (x, y) be a function of two independent varaibles x and y.
(i) If \({Lt}_{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(x+h, y)-f(x, y)}{h}\) exists then the limit is called the partial derivatie of u with respect to x. It is denoted by \(\frac{\partial u}{\partial x}\) or ux or \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\) or fx.

(ii) If \({Lt}_{k \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(x, y+k)-f(x, y)}{k}\) exists then the limit is called the partial derivative of u with respect to x. It is denoted by \(\frac{\partial u}{\partial y}\) or ux or \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}\) or fx.

Homogeneous Functions:
A function u = f (x, y) is said to be a homogeneous function of degree n in the variables in x and y if f(kx, ky) = knf(x, y) for all k or f (x, y) = xn f\(\left(\frac{y}{x}\right)\) or f (x, y) = yn f\(\left(\frac{y}{x}\right)\).

If u = f (x, y) is a homogeneous function of degree n in the variables x,y then x\(\frac{\partial \boldsymbol{U}}{\partial x}\) + y \(\frac{\partial \boldsymbol{U}}{\partial y}\) = nU
Proof:
Since u = f (x, y) is a homogeneous function of degree n, we have U = xng (y / x) where g (y / x) is function of y/x.
