Consider this problem in differentiation:

d/dx [ sqrt(u^2) ],  where u is a differentiable function of x and u < > 0.

The answer is:

u'  (u/|u|),  where u' is the derivative of u with respect to x.

This problem involves implicit differentiation & the chain rule.

What Maple input will produce the answer above?
