\frac{d}{d x} ((2 cos (x))^{2})

- 4 sin (2 x)

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} ((2 cos (x))^{2})

Simplify

(2 cos (x))^{2} : 4 cos^{2} (x)

= \frac{d}{d x} (4 cos^{2} (x))

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= 4 \frac{d}{d x} (cos^{2} (x))

Apply the chain rule:

2 cos (x) \frac{d}{d x} (cos (x))

= 2 cos (x) \frac{d}{d x} (cos (x))

\frac{d}{d x} (cos (x)) = - sin (x)

= 4 \cdot 2 cos (x) (- sin (x))

Simplify

4 \cdot 2 cos (x) (- sin (x)) : - 4 sin (2 x)

= - 4 sin (2 x)

\int_{- 1}^{1} π (e^{x})^{2} d x

9 x^{l n (9 x)}

h (x) = e^{x} + x^{5}
