How do you differentiate #sin (xy) = x^2 - y^2#? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Implicit Differentiation 1 Answer GiĆ³ Apr 14, 2015 In deriving remember that #y# is a fnction of #x#: #cos(xy)*(y+xdy/dx)=2x-2y(dy)/dx# #ycos(xy)+x(dy)/dxcos(xy)-2x+2y(dy)/dx=0# #(dy)/dx[xcos(xy)+2y]=2x-ycos(xy)# And finally: #(dy)/dx=(2x-ycos(xy))/(xcos(xy)+2y)# Answer link Related questions What is implicit differentiation?
