A. sinx2(sinx)2ln4
B. 2sinx2(sinx)2ln2
C. ln(sinx)2(sinx)2
D. 2sinxcosx2(sinx)2
Solution
Hint : Here we have been given a value whose derivative is to be found with respect to sinx . Firstly we will let both the values equal to some variable then we will differentiate each of them with respect to x using the formula of them. Finally we will divide both the values obtained and get our desired answer.
Complete step-by-step answer :
We have to find the derivative of the value given below:
2(sinx)2
We have to differentiate the above value with respect to sinx
Let us assume them as follows:
u=2(sinx)2 …… (1)
v=sinx …… (2)
Now let us differentiate equation (1) with respect to x as follows:
u=2(sinx)2
Take log both sides
logu=log2(sinx)2
As we know property of logarithm log(b)a=alog(b) we will use it above,
logu=(sinx)2log2 …. (3)
As we know the differentiation of logarithm and sinx is done as follows:
dxd(logx)=x1dxd(x) and dxd(sinx)=cosx
Use above formula in equation (3) we get,
dxd(logu)=dxd(log2×(sinx)2)
⇒u1dxdu=log2(2sindxd(cosx))
So we get the value as
⇒dxdu=u×log2×2sinx×cosx
Now replace value from equation (1) above we get,
⇒dxdu=2(sinx)2×log2×2sinxcosx ….. (4)
Next we will differentiate equation (2) with respect to x as follows:
dxdv=cosx …. (5)
Final step will be to divide equation (4) by equation (5) as below:
dxdvdxdu=cosx2(sinx)2×log2×2sinxcosx
⇒dvdu=2(sinx)2×log2×2sinx
Put the value from equation (1) and (2) above we get,
⇒d(sinx)d(2(sinx)2)=sinx2(sinx)22ln2
Using logarithm property log(b)a=alog(b) we can rewrite the above value as
⇒d(sinx)d(2(sinx)2)=sinx2(sinx)2ln22
⇒d(sinx)d(2(sinx)2)=sinx2(sinx)2ln4
Hence the correct option is (A) and (B).
So, the correct answer is “Option A and B”.
Note : Derivative is a small change in the value of a variable and the process of finding the derivative is known as differentiation. The most common example of it is change of displacement with respect to time which is known as velocity. The opposite of derivative is antiderivative. The derivative is found with respect to the independent variable. Every function has a different formula for finding the derivative.
