The question and ms guide is pretty much clear to me. I am attempting to use a non-implicit approach.
##\tan y=x, ⇒y=\tan^{-1} x##
We know that ##1+ \tan^2 x= \sec^2 x##
##\dfrac{dx}{dy}=sec^2 y##
##\dfrac{dx}{dy}=1+\tan^2 y##
##\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{1+x^2}##
##\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\dfrac{(1+x)0-1(2x)}{(1+x^2)^2}##
##\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\dfrac{-2x}{(1+x^2)^2}##
##\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}=-2x ⋅\left(\dfrac{dx}{dy}\right)^2##
No question here ...just looking at the problem from a different perspective ...any insight is welcome...
