Find the Derivative - d/dx xsin(x^2)
Problem
Solution
Identify the rule needed for the expression, which is a product of two functions:
x andsin(x2) Apply the product rule, which states
(d(u)*v)/d(x)=ud(v)/d(x)+vd(u)/d(x) Set
u=x andv=sin(x2) Differentiate
u to getd(x)/d(x)=1 Differentiate
v using the chain rule, where the derivative ofsin(u) iscos(u)⋅d(u)/d(x) Calculate
d(sin(x2))/d(x)=cos(x2)⋅2*x=2*x*cos(x2) Combine the parts using the product rule formula.
Simplify the expression by multiplying the terms.
