Differentiate:
x3 sec x
To find: Differentiation of x3 sec x
Formula used: (i) (uv)′ = u′v + uv′ (Leibnitz or product rule)
(ii)
(iii)
Let us take u = x3 and v = sec x
Putting the above obtained values in the formula :-
(uv)′ = u′v + uv′
(x3 sec x)’ = 3x2× secx + x3× secx tanx
= 3x2secx + x3secx tanx
= x2secx(3 + x tanx)
Ans) x2secx(3 + x tanx)
