x2y2+z22z=4
Differentiate throughout with respect to x,
Only treat y as constant, z and x are variables
d(x2)dxd(y2)dx+d(z22z}{dx}=d(4)dx
2x0+(2z2)dzdx=0
(2z2)dzdx=2x
Divide both sides by (2z2)
dzdx=2x2z2
dzdx=x1z
x2y2+z22z=4
Differentiate throughout with respect to y.
Only treat x as constant, y and z are variables
d(x2)dyd(y2)dy+d(z22z)dy=d(4)dy
02y+(2z2)dzdy=0
(2z2)dzdy
Divide both sides by (2z2)
dzdy=2y2z2
dzdy=yz1
