Math Problem Statement
derivative of sin 2x
Solution
The derivative of can be calculated using the chain rule. Here's the step-by-step solution:
- The derivative of with respect to is .
- The chain rule tells us to then multiply by the derivative of the inside function, which in this case is . The derivative of with respect to is 2.
So, the derivative of is:
