since we have to apply the product rule ,therefore sin^2x=sinx.sinx and cos^2x =cos.x.cosx
so the differrentiation would be
dx=sinx .dsinx/dx+sinx .dsinx/dx+cosx.dcosx/dx+cosx.dcosx/dx
=sinx.cosx+sinx.cosx+cos(-sinx)+cosx(-sinx)
=2sinxcosx-2cosxsinx
=0

f (x) = x^3 - 12x + a million . . . the 1st spinoff set to 0 shows turning or table sure factors f ' (x) = 3x^2 - 12 3x^2 - 12 = 0 3 * (x + 2) * (x - 2) = 0 x = 2 ... x = - 2 . . . the 2d spinoff evaluated at x = 2 and -2 determines if those factors are min, max, or neither. f ' ' (x) = 6x f ' ' (2) = 6*2 = 12 <== constructive fee shows x=2 is an area minimum f ' ' (-2) = 6*(-2) = -12 <== destructive fee shows x=-2 is an area optimum a.) x = - 2 is a optimum, and x=2 is a minimum ... so x = - infinity to -2 is increasing x = -2 to +2 is lowering x = +2 to + infinity is increasing b.) f (-2) = (-2)^3 - 12*(-2) + a million = 17 f (2) = (2)^3 - 12*(2) + a million = - 15 c.) . . . the 2d spinoff set to 0 shows inflection factors, or the place concavity ameliorations 6x = 0 x = 0 <=== inflection factor x = - 2 is a optimum, so could be concave down concavity ameliorations on the inflection factor(s) ... so x = - infinity to 0 is concave down x = 0 to + infinity is concave up

answer for this problem in simplest way will be
g(x)=sin^2 x+cos^2 x=1
derivative of g(x)=0

by chain rule
derivative of g(x)= 2(sin x)*(cos x) + 2(cos x)(-sin x)
=0.

Well Sin^2x can be seen as sin x*sinx. using the product rule we can say that u=sin and v=sinx so that

d(uv)/dx= u*dv/dx + v*du/dx

= sin x * cos x + sin x * cosx = 2 sinx cos x

Similarly for cos^2x

d(uv)/dx= cos x* -sinx + cos x* -sinx= - 2 sinx cos x

Deriative of g(x) = 2 sinx cos x - 2 sinx cos x = 0

An easier way to known this is to use the identity that sin^2 x + cos^2 x = 1. The deriative of 1 is zero.

If I understood your notation properly, the trigonometric identity sin^2x+cos^2x=1. the derivative is 0.

g'(x) = 2 sin x cos x - 2 cos x sin x = 0

sin^2x is the same as (sin(x))^2, so you can re-write the entire problem as (sin(x))^2 + (cos(x))^2....you then bring the exponent down and use chain rule, so you get 2(sin(x))(cos(x)) + 2(cos(x))(-sin(x))...you bring out the negative on the sin(x) and it comes to be zero

sin² x + cos² x = 1
so
g(x) = 1
the derivative of any number is 0
g'(x) = 0

take the derivative of the sin of 2x and multiply it by the derivative of 2x. add it to the derivative of cos of 2x times the derivative of 2x.

g'(x)=2cos2x-2sin2x.

TAG UR IT!! This is so scary. Send this to 15 people in the next 143 mins. When you are done press F6 and your crushes name will appear on the screen in big letters. This is scary cuz it works!! if you break the chain you will have problems with relationships for the next 5 years JUST COPY AND PASTE! no tag backs!
