Second Derivative of tan(x^2)??

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

use the chain rule to find first derivative can u do that?

OpenStudy (noorik.):

actually you don't need the chain rule to solve this derivative, the basic differentiation of tan(x) \[f(x) = \tan (x) \rightarrow f \prime (x) = \sec ^{2} (x) \times (1)\] where (1) is the derivative of x. solve this derivative on this basis

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

r u there lucy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the answer? that derivative of tan (x^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thought we would do chain rule... the first derivative is 2xsec^2(x^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now use the product rule

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

right
