For each of the trigo formulas for cos2x, deduce by differentiation the trigo formula of sin2x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
HELP. i dont understand the problem..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hmm..
you know what is the trigo formula of cos(2x) ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its cos^2x - sin^2 x

good
so now.. differentiate on both sides
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay, wait
OpenStudy (anonymous):
s it.. 2 cosx (-sinx) - 2sinx (cosx)??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so its -2cosxsinx - 2sinxcosx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea.. don't forget the left hand side

your equation was \[\cos(2x) = \cos^{2}x - \sin^2x\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, so.. whats next? =)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i told you :P.. differentiate on both sides.. then simplify!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hmm. -2cosx (sinx+sinx)???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ehh.. wrong :-/

you dunno \[\frac{d}{dx}\cos(2x) = ?\]
shame on you.. SHAME ON YOU :P..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, im sorry
OpenStudy (anonymous):
alright try again!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-2 Sin[2 x]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
?

hey.. its -2sin2x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes yes.. that is correct.. now simply fy.. u need to find what
sin(2x) is right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean *now simply fy*?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sin2x is sin(2x) = 2 sin x cos x

'sin2x is sin(2x) = 2 sin x cos x"
u have to derive this darling..
you differentiated an Equation remember
your equation was cos(2x) = cos^2 x - sin^ x
so when u differentiate that equation what do you get madam? (write both sides of that equation)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sin2x is 2cos2x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i said.. the entire equation.. left hand side AND right side
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-2sin2x = -2cosxsinx - 2sinxcosx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\cos(2x) = \cos^2x - \sin^2x\]
differentiating on both sides
\[-2\sin(2x) =2 sinxcosx - 2sinxcox\]

yes exactly .. finally phew :D
now simplify that expression.. and you get the formula for sin(2x)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yay its 2sinxcosx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup yup congrats :P
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thank you =) hahaha finally shame on me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
last question?

\[arc \sin \frac{ x }{ a } + \frac{ \sqrt{a^2-x^2} }{ x }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
first derivative
OpenStudy (anonymous):
arc sin x/a is 1/ sq rt a^2 - x^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the answer should be - sq rt a^2 - x^2 / x^2

no idea deriving the answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because u differentiated only the arc sin part, what about the other part?
