The slope of the tangent line is
Explanation:
Differentiate the equation implicitly:
As
We have then two possible solutions:
#(1)" " (1 -y') = 0#
#dy/dx = 1#
#y = x + a#
or:
#(2)" "(x-y+1) = 0#
#y = x+1#
which is just the particular case of
Thus:
is the general solution, which is always a straight line of slope
