Find the Derivative - d/dx f(x)=e^(sin(x))

Problem

d(esin(x))/d(x)

Solution

1. Identify the outer function and the inner function to apply the Chain Rule. The outer function is eu and the inner function is u=sin(x)

2. Apply the Chain Rule which states that d(eu)/d(x)=eu⋅d(u)/d(x)

3. Differentiate the inner function sin(x) with respect to x

d(sin(x))/d(x)=cos(x)

4. Multiply the derivative of the outer function by the derivative of the inner function.

esin(x)⋅cos(x)

Final Answer

d(esin(x))/d(x)=esin(x)*cos(x)
