Question

Determine the derivative of this:
y = tan^2(x^3)

Answer 1

How do we use the chain rule here?

Answer 2

first you get 3x^2 from x^3 than u do tan^2 that is 2tan^2(x^3) than tan that is sec^2(x^3)

Answer 3

so the answer is 6x^2 tan^2(x^3) sec^2(x^3)

Answer 4

hoops not right
tan^2 bit is 2tan(x^3)

Answer 5

6x^2 tan(x^3) sec^2(x^3)

Answer 6

hope it is clear

Answer 7

\[\tan ^2(x^3)\] <-- would you mind doing it in this format.

Answer 8

\[y' = 2(tanx)(\sec^2x)(x^3)(3x^2)\]
