Why are both the x-coordinate and y-coordinate generally needed to find the slope of the tangent line at a point for an implicitly defined function

The tangent slope is *defined* as . (this relates to the function tangens, tan, of an angle).

Because it is defined as a ratio of the change in y to the change in x, both coordinates are needed. Having only one coordinate, the slope would be undetermined. Lmk if you have questions.

this is a very good question

i got a hair cut today from my mom not to flex just to flex kim jon un is one rad fellow i'd say you'd need to take the hairline in kinda like a box shape like someone rammed a lego brick into your head. from there you really need to take the top up keeping with that boxy aesthetic, finally coat the whole thing with gel if your country economics are failing or whatever you can just coat it with the starving children's food rations. about 5 orphans per strand is a good ratio. good luck with the fresh cut my dude
