derivative of sec(x*tan(x))

Solution

\frac{d}{d x} (sec (x) \cdot tan (x))

Solution

- sec (x) + 2 sec^{3} (x)

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (sec (x) tan (x))

Apply the Product Rule:

(f \cdot g)^{'} = f^{'} \cdot g + f \cdot g^{'}

f = sec (x), g = tan (x)

= \frac{d}{d x} (sec (x)) tan (x) + \frac{d}{d x} (tan (x)) sec (x)

\frac{d}{d x} (sec (x)) = sec (x) tan (x)

\frac{d}{d x} (tan (x)) = sec^{2} (x)

= sec (x) tan (x) tan (x) + sec^{2} (x) sec (x)

Simplify

sec (x) tan (x) tan (x) + sec^{2} (x) sec (x) : - sec (x) + 2 sec^{3} (x)

= - sec (x) + 2 sec^{3} (x)
