Calculus implicit differentiation practice activity has 16 task cards using all derivative rules (power, product, quotient, and chain rule) with algebraic functions (polynomials and radical functions), trig functions (sine, cosine, and tangent only), and exponential functions.

Topics Include:

• Finding first derivatives
• Finding second derivatives
• First or second derivatives at a point
• Finding the slope at a point
• Using implicit differentiation to find equation of tangent lines

Functions Included:

• Polynomials and Radical Functions
• Trig Functions – Sine, Cosine, and Tangent
• Exponential Functions

This product contains 16 task cards in two different layouts.

• Layout #1 – color option
• Layout #2 – printer friendly black and white option

This activity can be split into a multiday activity!

• Day 1: Task Cards #1 – 8 are all first derivative implicit differentiation questions that involve the power, product, quotient, and/or chain rule. Note: Students are asked to not simplify their answers so they can focus on practicing derivative rules.
• Day 2: Task Cards #9 – 16 involve finding derivatives at a point, second derivatives, and tangent line examples.

All problems are intended to be completed without using a calculator.

This product includes a student response sheet, answer key, and a solution key.
