Question
Question: \[\frac{d}{dx}\left\lbrack \left( \frac{\tan^{2}2x - \tan^{2}x}{1 - \tan^{2}2x\tan^{2}x} \right)\cot...
dxd[(1−tan22xtan2xtan22x−tan2x)cot3x]
A
tan2xtanx
B
tan3xtanx
C
sec2x
D
secxtanx
Answer
sec2x
Explanation
Solution
Let y=1−tan22xtan2xtan22x−tan2x = (1+tan2xtanx)(tan2x−tanx)(1−tan2xtanx)(tan2x+tanx)
=tan(2x−x)tan(2x+x) = tanxtan3x.
∴ dxd[y.cot3x]=dxd[tanx]=sec2x.
