If y=3x^3e^x; find dy/dx?

Using the product rule we know that dy/dx = uv' + vu' where u = 3x^3; v = e^x. e^x differentiates to itself multiplied by any number in front of the x. u' = 9x^2; v' = e^x. Therefore dy/dx = 3x^3e^x + 9x^2e^x. This could be simplified further if the question asks for the answer in its simplest form.

Can you prove to me why cos^2(X) + sin^2(X) = 1?


Differentiate y = 4ln(x)x^2


Do the circles with equations x^2 -2x + y^2 - 2y=7 and x^2 -10x + y^2 -8y=-37 touch and if so, in what way (tangent to each other? two point of intersection?)


Integral of Cosec(x)/Sec(x) (i.e. Use of trignometric identities)
