\[y=3^\tan \theta \ln3\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
did you look under the parsley?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the theta sing should be in the exponent like 3^tan theta
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[y=3^{\tan(\theta)} \ln(3)\]?

yep thats the one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
first of all
\[ln(3)\] is a constant. so just leave it there
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay can you explai why its a constant?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then recall that the derivative if
\[b^x\] is
\[b^x\times \ln(b)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay

sure.
\[\ln(3)\] is a constant because 3 is a number
OpenStudy (anonymous):
right
myininaya (myininaya):
hey sensei!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so \[ln(3) is also a number
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hello guru!

new moniker?
myininaya (myininaya):
yes

@mathcruncher let's finish
the derivative of
\[b^x\] is \[b^x\times \ln(b)\] so via the chain rule the derivative of
\[3^{\tan(\theta)}\]
is
\[3^{\tan(\theta)} \times \sec^2(\theta)\times \ln(3)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i guess you have to multiply this whole thing by
\[\ln(3)\] and be done
