Differentiation of trigonometry rules

Mathematics

ScanSolve AI Answer

Here are the differentiation rules for the basic trigonometric functions:

  • The derivative of sin⁡(x)\sin(x) is cos⁡(x)\cos(x). ddx(sin⁡(x))=cos⁡(x)\frac{d}{dx}(\sin(x)) = \cos(x)
  • The derivative of cos⁡(x)\cos(x) is −sin⁡(x)-\sin(x). ddx(cos⁡(x))=−sin⁡(x)\frac{d}{dx}(\cos(x)) = -\sin(x)
  • The derivative of tan⁡(x)\tan(x) is sec⁡2(x)\sec^2(x). ddx(tan⁡(x))=sec⁡2(x)\frac{d}{dx}(\tan(x)) = \sec^2(x)
  • The derivative of cot⁡(x)\cot(x) is −csc⁡2(x)-\csc^2(x). ddx(cot⁡(x))=−csc⁡2(x)\frac{d}{dx}(\cot(x)) = -\csc^2(x)
  • The derivative of sec⁡(x)\sec(x) is sec⁡(x)tan⁡(x)\sec(x)\tan(x). ddx(sec⁡(x))=sec⁡(x)tan⁡(x)\frac{d}{dx}(\sec(x)) = \sec(x)\tan(x)
  • The derivative of csc⁡(x)\csc(x) is −csc⁡(x)cot⁡(x)-\csc(x)\cot(x). ddx(csc⁡(x))=−csc⁡(x)cot⁡(x)\frac{d}{dx}(\csc(x)) = -\csc(x)\cot(x)
