The formula to find derivative of a function f(x) using first principle :
Let
f(x) = tanx
Derivative of tanx using first principle :
From one of the Trigonometric Identities,
sinAcosB - cosAsinB = sin(A - B)
From standard results of limits,
Find the derivative of each of the following.
Problem 1 :
tan(7x)
Solution :
We already know the derivative of tanx, which is sec2x. We can find the derivative of tan(7x) using chain rule.
= [tan(7x)]'
= [sec2(7x)](7x)'
= [sec2(7x)](7)
= 7sec2(7x)
Problem 2 :
tan(4x - 13)
Solution :
= [tan(4x - 13)]'
= [sec2(4x - 13)](4x - 13)'
= [sec2(4x - 13)](4 - 0)
= [sec2(4x - 13)](4)
= 4sec2(4x - 13)
Problem 3 :
tan(3x2 - x + 5)
Solution :
= [tan(3x2 - x + 5)]'
= [sec2(3x2 - x + 5)](3x2 - x + 5)'
= [sec2(3x2 - x + 5)](6x - 1 + 0)
= [sec2(3x2 - x + 5)](6x - 1)
= (6x - 1)sec2(3x2 - x + 5)
Problem 4 :
tan2x
Solution :
= (tan2x)'
= (2tan2-1x)(tanx)'
= (2tanx)(sec2x)
= 2tanxsec2x
Problem 5 :
Solution :
Problem 6 :
tan√x
Solution :
Problem 7 :
etanx
Solution :
= (etanx)'
= etanx(tanx)'
= etanx(sec2x)
= (sec2x)etanx
Problem 8 :
ln(tanx)
Solution :
