Trig question, please help finish

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large y=tanx(sinx+cosx)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large y'= (tanx)(cosx+sinx)+(sinx+cosx)(\sec^2x)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that it or can i do more ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats the Product Rule of Differentiation, right? so, (f(x))(g(x)) = f'(x)g(x) + g'(x)f(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which will give you: y = tanx ( sinx + cosx ) y' = ((secx)^2)( sinx + cosx) + (tanx)(cosx - sinx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would that be all ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. You might have to simplify though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I said, 'might have to' from the looks of it, that answer is just as good.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you still need help simplifying?
