Derivative Calculations


In Exercises 1–8, given y = f(u) and u = g(x), find dy/dx = f'(g(x)) g'(x).


y = sin u, u = x − cos x

First, identify the functions involved: y = sin(u) and u = x - cos(x). We need to find dy/dx using the chain rule.
Apply the chain rule: dy/dx = (dy/du) * (du/dx). This means we need to find the derivative of y with respect to u and the derivative of u with respect to x.
Calculate dy/du: Since y = sin(u), the derivative dy/du is cos(u).
Calculate du/dx: For u = x - cos(x), the derivative du/dx is 1 + sin(x), because the derivative of x is 1 and the derivative of -cos(x) is sin(x).
Combine the derivatives using the chain rule: dy/dx = cos(u) * (1 + sin(x)). Substitute u = x - cos(x) into the expression to get dy/dx = cos(x - cos(x)) * (1 + sin(x)).

Chain Rule

The chain rule is a fundamental differentiation technique used when dealing with composite functions. It states that the derivative of a composite function y = f(g(x)) is found by multiplying the derivative of the outer function f with respect to its inner function g, by the derivative of the inner function g with respect to x. This is essential for calculating dy/dx when y and u are functions of x.

Derivative of Trigonometric Functions

Understanding the derivatives of trigonometric functions is crucial for solving problems involving these functions. For instance, the derivative of sin(u) with respect to u is cos(u). This knowledge is necessary to apply the chain rule effectively when differentiating y = sin(u) in terms of x, where u is a function of x.

Differentiation of Composite Functions

Differentiation of composite functions involves applying the chain rule to find the derivative of a function that is composed of other functions. In the given problem, y = sin(u) and u = x - cos(x) are composite functions, requiring the application of the chain rule to find dy/dx by differentiating each component function separately and then combining the results.
