Best Answer

You should apply the chain rule

d/dx(x.sin x) = x * d/dx(sin x) + sin x * d/dx(x)

= x * cos x + sin x * 1

= x.cos x + sin x

How do you differentiate x sinx with respect to y?

If you actually mean "... with respect to x", and that y is equal to this function of x, then the answer is:y = x sin(x)∴ dy/dx = sin(x) + x cos(x)


How do you differentiate sine x squared?

Using the Chain Rule :derivative of (sinx)2 = 2(sinx)1 * (derivative of sinx)d/dx (Sinx)2 = 2(sinx)1 * [d/dx (Sinx)]d/dx (Sinx)2 = 2(sinx) * (cosx)d/dx (Sinx)2 = 2 (sinx) * (cosx)d/dx (Sinx)2 = 2 sin(x) * cos(x)

Verify that Cos theta cot theta plus sin theta equals csc theta?

It's easiest to show all of the work (explanations/identities), and x represents theta. cosxcotx + sinx = cscx cosx times cosx/sinx + sinx = csc x (Quotient Identity) cosx2 /sinx + sinx = csc x (multiplied) 1-sinx2/sinx + sinx = csc x (Pythagorean Identity) 1/sinx - sinx2/sinx + sinx = csc x (seperate fraction) 1/sinx -sinx + sinx = csc x (canceled) 1/sinx = csc x (cancelled) csc x =csc x (Reciprocal Identity)


What is the derivative of sin x to the e to the xth power?

y = (sinx)^(e^x) ln(y) = ln((sinx)^(e^x)) ln(y) = (e^x)ln(sinx) (1/y)dy = (e^x)(1/sinx)(cosx)+ln(sinx)(e^x)dx (1/y)dy = (e^x)(cotx)+ln(sinx)(e^x)dx dy = ((sinx)^(e^x))((cotx)(e^x)+ln(sinx)(e^x))dx dy = ((e^x)(sinx)^(e^x))(cotx+ln(sinx))dx


What is sin 3x in terms of sin x?

given the identity sin(x+y)=sinx cosy + siny cosxsin2x = 2 sinx cosx andsin(2(x)+x) = sin 2x cos x + sinx cos 2xusing the last two identities givessin3x= 2 sinx cosx cosx + sinx cos2xfactoring the sinx we havesin3x = sinx(2cosx cosx+cos2x)which satisfies the requirement.However, we can simplify further since cos 2x = cosx cosx - sinx sinx (a well known identity)sin3x = sinx (2cosx cosx +cosx cosx - sinx sinx)so sin3x= sinx(3cosx cosx - sinx sinx)or sin 3x = 3.cos²x.sinx - sin³x* * * * *Good, but not good enough. The answer was required in terms of sin, not a mixture of sinx and cosx. Easily recitified, though, since cos²x = 1 - sin²xTherefore sin3x = 3*(1-sin²x)*sinx - sin³x= 3sinx - 3sin³x - sin³x= 3sinx - 4sin³x

How do you solve csc x-sin x equals cos x cot x?

cscx-sinx=(cosx)(cotx) 1/sinx-sinx=(cosx)(cosx/sinx) (1/sinx)-(sin^2x/sinx)=cos^2x/sinx cos^2x/sinx=cos^2x/sinx Therefore LS=RS You have to remember some trig identities when answering these questions. In this case, you need to recall that sin^2x+cos^2x=1. Also, always switch tanx cotx cscx secx in terms of sinx and cosx.


Limit x approaches 0 sinx divide x equals 1 evaluate limit x approaches 0 cos2x-1 divide x?

== == Cos2x - 1 = [1 - 2sin2 x] - 1 = - 2sin2 x; so [Cos2x - 1] / x = -2 [sinx] [sinx / x] As x approaches 0, sinx / x app 1 while 2 sinx app 0; hence the limit is 0.
