The first deriviative of sin(x) is cos(x), which is also sin(x + pi/2).
The general formula, then for the nth deriviative of sin(x) is sin(x + n pi/2).
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

f(x)=sinx+cosx take the derivative f'(x)=cosx-sinx critical number when x=pi/4
The derivative of 2^x is 2^x * ln2 so the derivative of 2^cosx * ln2 multiplied by d/dx of cox, which is -sinx so the derivative of the inside function is -sinx * 2^cosx *ln2. As to the final question, using the chain rule, d/dx (2^cosx)^0.5 will equal half of (2^cosx)^-0.5 * -sinx * 2^cosx * ln2

derivative (7cosx) = -ln(7) 7cosx sinx dx
The derivative of sin(x) is cos(x).
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)
(cosx)^2-(sinx)^2
y=1/sinxy'=(sinx*d/dx(1)-1*d/dx(sinx))/(sin2x)y'=(sinx*0-1(cosx))/(sin2x)y'=(-cosx)/(sin2x)y'=-(cosx/sinx)*(1/sinx)y'=-cotx*cscx
