Find the tangent to the curve y = x^2 + 3x + 2 at x = 1

First, we differentiate y = x^2 + 3x + 2 to find the slope of the curve at any given x point: dy/dx = 2x + 3 So at x = 1, dy/dx = 2 + 3 = 5 We know that straight lines come in the form y = mx + c, and in thi...

Differentiate: y = sin(2x).

Using the chain rule with u = 2x: y = sin(2x) becomes y = sin(u) dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx dy/du = cos(u) du/dx = 2 So dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx = 2 cos(u).
