Differentiation Questions

Differentiate \(x^{sinx}\) with respect to x.

Solution : Let y = \(x^{sinx}\). Then, Taking log both sides, log y = sin x.log x \(\implies\) y = \(e^{sin x.log x}\) By using logarithmic differentiation, On differentiating both sides with respect to x, we get \(dy\over dx\) = \(e^{sin x.log x}\)\(d\over dx\)(sin x.log x) \(\implies\) \(dy\over dx\) = \(x^{sin x}{log x {d\over dx}(sin …

If y = \(\sqrt{sinx + \sqrt{sinx + \sqrt{sinx + ……. to \infty}}}\), find \(dy\over dx\).

Solution : Since by deleting a single term from an infinite series, it remains same. Therefore, the given function may be written as y = \(\sqrt{sin x + y}\) Squaring on both sides, \(\implies\)  \(y^2\)  = sin x + y By using differentiation of infinite series, Differentiating both sides with respect to x, 2y \(dy\over …

Find \(dy\over dx\) where x = a{cos t + \({1\over 2} log tan^2 {t\over 2}\)} and y = a sin t

Solution : We have, x = a{cos t + \({1\over 2} log tan^2 {t\over 2}\)} and y = a sin t \(\implies\) x = a{cos t + \({1\over 2} \times 2 log tan{t\over 2}\)} and y = a sin t \(\implies\) x = a{cos t + {\(log tan{t\over 2}\)} and y = a sin t …

What is the differentiation of \(e^{sinx}\) ?

Solution : Let y = \(e^{sinx}\). Putting u = sinx , we get y = \(e^u\) and u = sinx \(\therefore\)  \(dy\over du\) = \(e^u\) and \(du\over dx\) = cosx Now, \(dy\over dx\) = \(dy\over du\) \(\times\) \(du\over dx\) \(\implies\) \(dy\over dx\) = \(e^u\)cosx = \(e^{sinx}\)cosx Hence, the differentiation of \(e^{sinx}\) with respect to x …
