Trig functions have their own special derivatives that you will have to memorize.
For instance:
the derivative of sinx is cosx.
The derivative of cosx is -sinx
The derivative of tanx is sec2x
The derivative of cscx is -cscxcotx
The derivative of secx is secxtanx
The derivative of cotx is -csc2x

Is sine a trig function?
Yes, sine is a trig function, it is opposite over hypotenuse.
What is the second derivative of a function's indefinite integral?
well, the second derivative is the derivative of the first derivative. so, the 2nd derivative of a function's indefinite integral is the derivative of the derivative of the function's indefinite integral. the derivative of a function's indefinite integral is the function, so the 2nd derivative of a function's indefinite integral is the derivative of the function.
What is null derivative?
A null derivative occurs when an increasing function does not have a derivative. This is most commonly seen in the question mark function.
What is the second derivitive of sec x?
Write sec x as a function of sines and cosines (in this case, sec x = 1 / cos x). Then use the division formula to take the first derivative. Take the derivative of the first derivative to get the second derivative. Reminder: the derivative of sin x is cos x; the derivative of cos x is - sin x.
What is the purpose of differential calculus?
Differential Calculus is to take the derivative of the function. It is important as it can be applied and supports other branches of science. For ex, If you have a velocity function, you can get its acceleration function by taking its derivative, same relationship as well with area and volume formulas.
How do you find second derivative of a function?
All it means to take the second derivative is to take the derivative of a function twice. For example, say you start with the function y=x2+2x The first derivative would be 2x+2 But when you take the derivative the first derivative you get the second derivative which would be 2

How do you get the second derivative of potential energy?
The same way you get the second derivative from any function. Assuming you have a function that expresses potential energy as a function of time, or perhaps as a function of position, you take the derivate of this function. This will give you another function. Then, you take the derivate of this derivative, to get the second derivative.
How do you find the slope of a tangent?
Take the derivative of the function.
What is the derivative of e2x-1?

How do you find the horizontal asymptote of a trig function?
The only trig functions i can think of with horizontal assymptotes are the inverse trig functions. and they go assymptotic for everytime the non-inverse function is equal to zero.
How can I use the scipy differentiation function to calculate the derivative of a mathematical function?
To calculate the derivative of a mathematical function using the scipy differentiation function, you can use the scipy.misc.derivative function. This function takes the mathematical function, the point at which you want to calculate the derivative, and the order of the derivative as input parameters. It then returns the numerical value of the derivative at that point.
How do you find the directional derivative of any function?
You take the derivative using only one variable. The other variables act as constants.
What is the difference between the differentiation of the function and the partial differentiation of the function?
You can differentiate a function when it only contains one changing variable, like f(x) = x2. It's derivative is f'(x) = 2x. If a function contains more than one variable, like f(x,y) = x2 + y2, you can't just "find the derivative" generically because that doesn't specify what variable to take the derivative with respect to. Instead, you might "take the derivative with respect to x (treating y as a constant)" and get fx(x,y) = 2x or "take the derivative with respect to y (treating x as a constant)" and get fy(x,y) = 2y. This is a partial derivative--when you take the derivative of a function with many variable with respect to one of the variables while treating the rest as constants.
What is null derivative?
A null derivative occurs when an increasing function does not have a derivative. This is most commonly seen in the question mark function.
How do you determine the relative minimum and relative maximum values of functions and the intervals on which functions are decreasing or increasing?
You take the derivative of the function. The derivative is another function that tells you the slope of the original function at any point. (If you don't know about derivatives already, you can learn the details on how to calculate in a calculus textbook. Or read the Wikipedia article for a brief introduction.) Once you have the derivative, you solve it for zero (derivative = 0). Any local maximum or minimum either has a derivative of zero, has no defined derivative, or is a border point (on the border of the interval you are considering). Now, as to the intervals where the function increase or decreases: Between any such maximum or minimum points, you take any random point and check whether the derivative is positive or negative. If it is positive, the function is increasing.
