derivative of

(a^{x})^{2}

2 a^{2 x} ln (a)

Solution steps

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

Simplify

(a^{x})^{2} : a^{2 x}

= \frac{d}{d x} (a^{2 x})

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} = e^{b l n (a)}

a^{2 x} = e^{2 x l n (a)}

= \frac{d}{d x} (e^{2 x l n (a)})

Apply the chain rule:

e^{2 x l n (a)} \frac{d}{d x} (2 x ln (a))

= e^{2 x l n (a)} \frac{d}{d x} (2 x ln (a))

\frac{d}{d x} (2 x ln (a)) = 2 ln (a)

= e^{2 x l n (a)} \cdot 2 ln (a)

e^{2 x l n (a)} = a^{2 x}

= 2 a^{2 x} ln (a)

\frac{sin ^{2} ( x )}{x ^{2}}

\frac{d}{d x} (4 x^{2} - 14 x - 8 a)

csc^{3} (x)

2 x^{2} - x + 1

\frac{d}{d a} (sin^{2} (a) + cos^{4} (a))
