If we want to find the slope of the line tangent to the graph of x2+y2=25 at the point (3,4), we could evaluate the derivative of the function y=√25−x2 at x=3.

In this case, we say that y is an implicit function of x. The process of implicit differentiation, we take the equation that generates an implicitly given curve and differentiate both sides with respect to x while treating y as a function of x.
