Find the derivative: f(x)= 5 secx tanx I already tried like this dx/dy= 5(secx tan^2x + secx (1+tan^2x)) dx/dy= 5 (2secxtan^2x +secx) dx/dy= 5secx (2tan^2x+1) What's wrong in my answer? How to get this answer: dx/dy= 5secx (2sec^2x -1)

i hate these sec and cot bullpellet just look it up lol other side sec = 1/cos and tan = sin/cos so sin/cos^2 u substitution

oh u want derivative i thought u wanted integral my bad lol

OpenStudy (dan815):

well u can still do it that way just ignore u substitution comment
