What is the second derivative value for the function g(x)=sin (9x)?

We'll differentiate the given functin with respect to x,
using the chain rule.


g'(x) = [sin
(9x)]'


g'(x) = [cos
(9x)]*(9x)'


g'(x) = 9*cos
(9x)


Now, we'll differentiate the expression of g'(x), with
respect to x:


g"(x) = [9*cos
(9x)]'


g"(x) = 9*(-sin
(9x))*(9x)'


g"(x) = -81sin
(9x)


The value of the second derivative of
the given function is g"(x) = -81sin (9x).

Can (sec x - cosec x) / (tan x - cot x) be simplified further?

Given the expression ( sec x - csec x ) / (tan x - cot x) We need to simplify. We will use trigonometric identities ...
