This video continues to look at Differentiation for the Specialist Mathematics course for VCE Units 3 and 4 here in Australia. However, this content is great for all students following a Mathematics course. I take a look at how you can differentiate functions with respect to y rather than respect to x. I explain why you need to do this (as it's going to come in handy in a later video!) and show some examples of how to do it. I also show where you need to be careful. The theory is explained in an easy to understand way too!

This maths video has been created for courses which are delivered in Australia but, as Maths is a constant, it is equally helpful for students in the USA, UK and other countries who are looking for good maths videos for both high school and middle school.
