want the proof? Here it is ( i am assuming you know the dervatives of sinx and cosx)
y = tanx
y = sinx/cosx
y' = [cosx(cosx) - sinx(-sinx)]/(cosx)^2 --> quotient rule
y'= [(cosx)^2 + (sinx)^2]/(cosx)^2
y' = 1/(cosx)^2
y' = (secx)^2
voila

y=tanx
d(tanx)/dx=sec^x
{standard derivative}
i hope that this helps

If you mean derivative, it's sec² x.
