If ex+y - x = 0, prove that $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1-\text{x}}{\text{x}}$
AnswerHere,
ex+y - x = 0
ex+y = x .....(i)
Differentiating it with respect to x using chain rule,
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\text{x}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}\big)=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})$
$\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x}+\text{y})=1$
$\text{x}\Big[1+\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big]=1$
[Using euqation (i)]
$1+\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}$
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}-1$
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1-\text{x}}{\text{x}}$

Find the value of k for which the function $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\frac{\text{x}^{2} + 3\text{x} - 10}{\text{x} - 2},&\text{x}\neq2\\\text{k},&\text{x} = {2}\end{cases}$ is continues at x = 2.
AnswerGiven
$\text{f(x)} = \frac{\text{x}^{2} + 3\text{x} - 10}{\text{x} - 2}$
Continuity
$\text{x} = 2$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x} \rightarrow 2} \frac{\text{x}^{2} + 3\text{x} - 10}{\text{x} -2} = \text{k}$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow 2} \frac{\text{x}^{2} + 5\text{x} - 2\text{x} - 10}{\text{x} - 2 } = \text{k}$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x} \rightarrow 2}\frac{\text{x} (\text{x} + 5) - 2 (\text{x} + 5)}{\text{x} - 2} = \text{k}$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x} \rightarrow 2} \frac{(\text{x} - 2) (\text{x} + 5)}{\text{(x} - 2)} = \text{k}$
When x = 2
x + 5 = k
k = 5 + 2 = 7
k = 7

If $\text{y}=\log\Big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}}}\Big),$ prove that $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x}-1}{2\text{x}(\text{x}+1)}$
AnswerWe have, $\text{y}=\log\Big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}}}\Big)$
Differentiating with respect to x,
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\log\Big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}}}\Big)$
$=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}}}}\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\sqrt{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}}}\Big)$
$=\frac{\sqrt{\text{x}}}{\text{x}+1}\Big(\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\text{x}}}-\frac{1}{2\text{x}\sqrt{\text{x}}}\Big)$
$=\frac{1}{2}\frac{\sqrt{\text{x}}}{\text{x}+1}\Big(\frac{\text{x}-1}{\text{x}\sqrt{\text{x}}}\Big)$
$=\frac{\text{x}-1}{2\text{x}(\text{x}+1)}$
So,
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x}-1}{2\text{x}(\text{x}+1)}$

Verify Lagrange's mean value theorem for the following function on the indicated intervals. find a point 'c' in the indicated interval as stated by the Lagrange's mean value theorem.
f(x) = 2x2 - 3x + 1 on [1, 3]
AnswerHere, f(x) = 2x2 - 3x + 1 on [1, 3]
We know that a polynomial function is continuous and differentiable.
So, f(x) is continuous in [1, 3] and f(x) differentiable in (1, 3).
So, Lagrange's mean value theorem is applicable.
So, there must exist at least one real number $\text{c}\in(1,3)$ such that
$\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(3)-\text{f}(-1)}{3-1}$
$\Rightarrow4\text{c}-3=\frac{(2(3)^2-3(3)+1)-(2-3+1)}{3-1}$
$\Rightarrow4\text{c}-3=\frac{10}{2}$
$\Rightarrow4\text{c}=5+3$
$\Rightarrow4\text{c}=8$
$\Rightarrow\text{c}=2\in(1,3)$
Hence, Lagrange's mean value theorem is verified.

Verify Lagrange's mean value theorem for the following function on the indicated intervals. find a point 'c' in the indicated interval as stated by the Lagrange's mean value theorem. $\text{f}(\text{x})=\sin\text{x}-\sin2\text{x}-\text{x}\text{ on }[0,\pi]$
AnswerWe have, $\text{f}(\text{x})=\sin\text{x}-\sin2\text{x}-\text{x}$
Since,
$\sin\text{x},\sin2\text{x}\ \&\ \text{x}$ are everywhere continuous and differentiable. Therefore, f(x) is continuous on
$[0,\pi]$ and differentiable on $(0,\pi)$ Concequently, there exist some $\text{c}\in(0,\pi)$such that
$\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(\pi)-\text{f}(0)}{\pi-0}=\frac{\text{f}(\pi)-\text{f}(0)}{\pi}$
Now, $\text{f}(\text{x})=\sin\text{x}-\sin2\text{x}-\text{x}$
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=\cos\text{x}-2\cos2\text{x}-1,\text{f}(\pi)=-\pi,\text{f}(0)=0$
$\therefore\ \text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{\text{f}(\pi)-\text{f}(0)}{\pi-0}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{x}-2\cos2\text{x}-1=-1$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{x}-2\cos2\text{x}=0$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{x}-4\cos^2\text{x}=-2$
$\Rightarrow4\cos^2\text{x}-\cos\text{x}-2=0$
$\Rightarrow\cos\text{x}=\frac{1}{8}\big(1\pm\sqrt{33}\big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\cos^{-1}\Big[\frac{1}{8}\big(1\pm\sqrt{33}\big)\Big]$
Thus, $\text{c}=\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{1\pm\sqrt{33}}{8}\Big)\in(0,\pi)$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(\pi)-\text{f}(0)}{\pi-0}.$
Hence, Lagrange's mean value theorem is verified.

Verify Lagrange's mean value theorem for the following function on the indicated intervals. find a point 'c' in the indicated interval as stated by the Lagrange's mean value theorem.
$\text{f}(\text{x})=\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}\text{ on }[2,4]$
AnswerWe have, $\text{f}(\text{x})=\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}$
Here, f(x) will exist,
if
$\text{x}^2-4\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\leq-2\text{ or }\text{x}\geq2$
Since, for each $\text{x}\in2,4,$ the function f(x) attains a unique definite value.
So, f(x) is continuous on 2, 4
Also,
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}}(2\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}}$
Exists for all $\text{x}\in2,4$
So, f(x) is differentiable on 2, 4.
Thus, both the conditions of Lagrange's theorem are satisfied.
Consequently, there exists some $\text{c}\in2,4$ such that
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}}(2\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}}$
Now,
$\text{f}(\text{x})=\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}$
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}},\text{f}(4)=2\sqrt3,\text{f}(2)=0$
$\therefore\ \text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{\text{f}(4)-\text{f}(2)}{4-2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}}=\frac{2\sqrt3}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^2-4}}=\sqrt3$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{x}^2-4}=3$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2=3\text{x}^2-12$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2=6$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\pm\sqrt6$
Thus, $\text{c}=\sqrt6\in(2,4)$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(4)-\text{f}(2)}{4-2}$
Hence, Lagrange's theorem is verified.

Find the value of k in this question, so that the function f is continuous at the indicated point:
$\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\frac{2^{\text{x}+2}-16}{4^\text{x}-16},&\text{if x}\neq2\\\text{k},&\text{if x}=2\end{cases}$ at x = 2.
AnswerConsider, $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\frac{2^{\text{x}+2}-16}{4^\text{x}-16},&\text{if x}\neq2\\\text{k},&\text{if x}=2\end{cases}$ at x = 2 Since, f(x) is continuous at x = 2.
$\therefore$ L.H.L = R.H.L = f(2)
At x = 2,
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow2}\frac{2^\text{x}\cdot2^2-2^4}{4^\text{x}-4^2}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow2}\frac{4\cdot(2^\text{x}-4)}{(2^\text{x})^2-(4)^2}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow2}\frac{4\cdot(2^\text{x}-4)}{(2^\text{x}-4)-(2^\text{x}+4)}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow2}\frac{4}{2^\text{x}+4}=\frac{8}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$
But f(2) = k
$\therefore\ \text{k}=\frac{1}{2}$

$=\frac{\sqrt{2\text{x}+7}\frac{-1}{\sqrt{4-\text{x}^2}}-\Big(\cos^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)\frac{2}{2\sqrt{2\text{x}+7}}}{2\text{x}+7}$
$=\frac{-\sqrt{2\text{x}+7}}{\sqrt{4-\text{x}^2}\times(2\text{x}+7)}-\frac{\cos^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{(\sqrt{2\text{x}+7})(2\text{x}+7)}$

If f(x) is an even function, then write whether f'(x) is even of odd.
AnswerHere,
f(x) is even function, so
f(-x) = f(x)
Differentiating it with respect to x,
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{f}(-\text{x}))=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{f}(\text{x}))$
$\text{f}'(-\text{x})\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(-\text{x})=\text{f}'\text{(x)}$
$\text{f}'(-\text{x})\times(-1)=\text{f}'(\text{x})$
$-\text{f}'(-\text{x})=\text{f}'(\text{x})$
$\text{f}'(-\text{x})=-\text{f}'(\text{x})$
So,
f'(x) is odd function.

AnswerThe given relationship is $\text{y}=\tan^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{3\text{x}-\text{x}^{3}}{1-3\text{x}^{2}}\Bigg)$
$\Rightarrow\tan\text{y}=\frac{3\text{x}-\text{x}^{3}}{1-3\text{x}^{2}} ...\text{(i)}$
$\text{y}=\tan^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{3\text{x}-\text{x}^{3}}{1-3\text{x}^{2}}\Bigg)$
It is known that, $\tan\text{y}=\frac{3\tan\frac{\text{y}}{3}-\tan^{3}\frac{\text{y}}{3}}{1-3\tan^{2}\frac{\text{y}}{3}} ...\text{(ii)}$
Comparing equations (1) and (2), we obtain
$\text{x} =\tan\frac{\text{y}}{3}$
Differenting this relationship with respect to x, we obtain
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Bigg(\tan\frac{\text{y}}{3}\Bigg)$
$\Rightarrow1 =\sec^{2}\frac{\text{y}}{3}.\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Bigg(\frac{\text{y}}{3}\Bigg)$
$\Rightarrow1 =\sec^{2}\frac{\text{y}}{3}.\frac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}} = \frac{3}{\sec^{2}\frac{\text{y}}{3}} =\frac{3}{1 +\tan^{2}\frac{\text{y}}{3}}$
$\therefore \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}= \frac{3}{1+ \text{x}^{2}}$

AnswerHere,
$\text{y}=\sqrt{\cos\text{x}+\sqrt{\cos\text{x}+\sqrt{\cos\text{x}+\ .... \text{to }\infty}}}$
$\text{y}=\sqrt{\cos\text{x}+\text{y}}$
Squaring both the sides,
$\text{y}^2=\cos\text{x}+\text{y}$
Differentiating it with respect to x,
$2\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=-\sin\text{x}+\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}(2\text{y}-1)=-\sin\text{x}$

AnswerGiven,
$\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{a}^2}+\frac{\text{y}^2}{\text{b}^2}=1$
Differentiating with resepct to x,
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{a}^2}+\frac{\text{y}^2}{\text{b}^2}\Big)=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(1)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{a}^2}\Big)+\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\frac{\text{y}^2}{\text{b}^2}\Big)=0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{a}^2}(2{\text{x}})+\frac{1}{\text{b}^2}(2\text{y})\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}=0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2\text{y}}{\text{b}^2}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=-\frac{2{\text{x}}}{\text{a}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=-\Big(\frac{2{\text{x}}}{\text{a}^2}\Big)\Big(\frac{\text{b}^2}{2\text{y}}\Big)$

Find the value of k in this question, so that the function f is continuous at the indicated point:
$\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}3\text{x}-8,&\text{if x}\leq5\\2\text{k},&\text{if x}>5\end{cases}$ at x = 5.
AnswerWe have, $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}3\text{x}-8,&\text{if x}\leq5\\2\text{k},&\text{if x}>5\end{cases}$ at x = 5.
Since, f(x) is continuous at x = 5.
$\therefore$ L.H.L = R.H.L = f(5)
Now, $\text{L.H.L}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow5^-}(3\text{x}-8)=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}[(5-\text{h})-8]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\ [15-3\text{h}-8]=7$
$\text{R.H.L}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow5^+}2\text{k}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}2\text{k}=2\text{x}=7$ $[\because\ \text{L.H.L}=\text{R.H.L}]$
And f(5) = 3 × 5 - 8 = 7
$2\text{k}=7\Rightarrow\ \text{k}=\frac{7}{2}$

AnswerThe given equations are $\text{x}=\text{a}(\cos\theta+\theta\sin\theta)\text{ and y}=\text{a}(\sin\theta-\theta\cos\theta)$
Then, $\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}= \text{a}\Big[\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}\cos\theta+\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\theta\sin\theta)\Big]$ $=\text{a}\Big[-\sin\theta+\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin\theta)+\sin\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\theta)\Big]$
$=\text{a}[-\sin\theta+\theta\cos\theta+\sin\theta]=\text{a}\theta\cos\theta$
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{d}\theta}=\text{a}\Big[\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin\theta)-\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\theta\cos\theta)\Big]$ $=\text{a}\Big[\cos\theta-\Big\{\theta\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\cos\theta)+\cos\theta.\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\theta)\Big\}\Big]$
$=\text{a}[\cos\theta+\theta\sin\theta-\cos\theta]$

Verify Lagrange's mean value theorem for the following function on the indicated intervals. find a point 'c' in the indicated interval as stated by the Lagrange's mean value theorem.
f(x) = x2 - 3x + 2 on [-1, 2]
AnswerWe have f(x) = x2 - 3x + 2 Since a polynomial function is everywhere continuous and differentiable. Therefore, f(x) is continuous on
-1, 2 and differentiable on -1, 2. Thus, both conditions of Lagrange's mean value theorem are satisfied. So, there must exist at least one real number $\text{c}\in-1,2$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(2)-\text{f}(-1)}{2+1}$ $\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(2)-\text{f}(-1)}{3}$ Now, f(x) = x2 - 3x + 2 ⇒ f'(x) = 2x - 3 ⇒ f(2) = 0 ⇒ f(-1) = (-1)2 - 3(-1) + 2 ⇒ f(-1) = 6 $\therefore\ \text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{\text{f}(2)-\text{f}(-1)}{3}$ $\Rightarrow2\text{x}-3=-2$ $\Rightarrow2\text{x}-1=0$ $\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{1}{2}$ Thus, $\text{c}=\frac{1}{2}\in(1,2)$ such that $\text{f}'(\text{c})=\frac{\text{f}(2)-\text{f}(-1)}{2-(-1)}$ Hence, Lagrange's mean value theorem is verified.

Differentiate the following w.r.t. x:
$\sin\text{x}^2+\sin^2\text{x}+\sin^2(\text{x}^2)$
AnswerLet $\text{y}=\sin\text{x}^2+\sin^2\text{x}+\sin^2(\text{x}^2)$
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sin\big(\text{x}^2\big)+\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\sin\text{x}\big)^2+\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sin\text{x}^2)^2$
$=\cos\big(\text{x}^2\big)\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\text{x}^2\big)+2\sin\text{x}\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sin\text{x}+2\sin^2\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sin\text{x}^2$
$=2\text{x}\cos\text{x}^2+2\cdot\sin\text{x}\cdot\cos\text{x}+2\sin\text{x}^2\cos\text{x}^2\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\text{x}^2$
$=2\text{x}\cos\text{x}^2+2\cdot\sin\text{x}\cdot\cos\text{x}+2\sin\text{x}^2\cos\text{x}^2\cdot2\text{x}$
$=2\text{x}\cos\text{x}^2+\sin2\text{x}+\sin\big(2\text{x}^2\big)\cdot2\text{x}$
$=2\text{x}\cos\text{x}^2+2\text{x}\cdot\sin2\big(\text{x}^2\big)+\sin2\text{x}$

Find the second order derivatives of the following functions:
$\text{y}=\log(\log\text{x})$
AnswerWe have,
$\text{y}=\log(\log\text{x})$
Differentiating w.r.t.x, we get
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{\log\text{x}}\times\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\frac{1}{\text{x}\log\text{x}}$
Differentiating w.r.t.x, we get
$ \frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}=\frac{0-(\log\text{x}+1)}{(\text{x}\log\text{x})^2}=-\frac{(1+\log\text{x})}{(\text{x}\log\text{x})^2}$

Differentiate the following functions with respect to x:
$10^{(10^\text{x})}$
AnswerLet $\text{y}=10^{(10^\text{x})}\ .....(\text{i})$
Taking log on both sides,
$\log\text{y}=\log_\text{e}10^{(10^\text{x})}$
$\log\text{y}=10^{\text{x}}\log_\text{e}10$
Differentiating with respect to x,
$\Rightarrow\ \frac{1}{\text{y}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\log_\text{e}10\times10^\text{x}\log_\text{e}10$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{y}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=10^\text{x}\times(\log_\text{e}10)^2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{y}\big[10^{\text{x}}\times(\log_\text{e}10)^2\big]$
$\therefore\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=10^{(10\text{x})}\times10^\text{x}\times(\log_\text{e}10)^2$

Discuss the continuity of the following functions:
$\text{f(x)} = \sin \text{x} . \cos \text{x}$
AnswerLet a be an arbitrary real number then $^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{x}\rightarrow\text{a}^{+}}\text{f(x)} \Rightarrow^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{h}\rightarrow\text{0}}\text{f(a + h)} $
$\Rightarrow\ ^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{h}\rightarrow\text{0}}\sin\text{(a + h)} . \cos (\text{a} + \text{h})$
$\Rightarrow\ ^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{h}\rightarrow\text{0}}(\sin\text{a}\cos\text{ h} + \cos\text{a} \sin \text{h})(\cos \text{a}\cos\text{h}-\sin\text{a}\sin\text{h})$
$= (\sin \text{a}\cos0+\cos\text{a}\sin0) (\cos\text{a}\cos0 - \sin\text{a}\sin0)$
$=( \sin \text{a} + 0) ( \cos\text{a}-0)$
$= \sin \text{a} . \cos\text{a}= \text{f(a)}$
Similarly, we have $^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{x}\rightarrow\text{a}^{-}}\text{f(x)} = \text{f(a)}$
$\therefore\ ^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{x}\rightarrow\text{a}^{-}}\text{f(x)}= \text{f(a)}= ^{\ \ \text{lim}}_{\text{x}\rightarrow\text{a}^{+}}\text{f(x)}$
Therefore, f(x) is continuous at x = a.
Since, a is an arbitrary real number, therefore, $\text{f(x)}= \sin\text{x} . \cos\text{x}$ is continuous.

If x and y are connected parametrically by the equations given in Exercise without eliminating the parameter, Find $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}.$
$\text{x}=\text{a}(\theta-\sin\theta),\text{y}=\text{a}(1+\cos\theta)$
AnswerThe given equations are $\text{x}=\text{a}(\theta-\sin\theta)\text{ and y}=\text{a}(1+\cos\theta)$
Then, $\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}= \text{a}\Big[\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\theta)-\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\sin\theta)\Big]=\text{a}(1-\cos\theta)$
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{d}\theta}= \text{a}\Big[\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(1)+\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}\theta}(\cos\theta)\Big]=\text{a}[0+(-\sin\theta)]=-\text{a}\sin\theta$
$\therefore\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{d}\theta}\Big)}{\Big(\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{d}\theta}\Big)}=\frac{-\text{a}\sin\theta}{\text{a}(1-\cos\theta)}=\frac{-2\sin\frac{\theta}{2}\cos\frac{\theta}{2}}{2\sin^2\frac{\theta}{2}}=\frac{-\cos\frac{\theta}{2}}{\sin\frac{\theta}{2}}=-\cot\frac{\theta}{2}$

Differentiate the following functions with respect to x:
$\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\sin\text{x}}{1+\cos\text{x}}\Big),\pi<\text{x}<\pi$
AnswerLet $\text{f(x)}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\sin\text{x}}{1+\cos\text{x}}\Big)$
This function is defined for all real numbers where $\cos\text{x}\neq1$
$\text{f(x)}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\sin\text{x}}{1+\cos\text{x}}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x)}=\tan^{-1}\Bigg[\frac{2\sin\big(\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)\cos\big(\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)}{2\cos^2\big(\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)}\Bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x)}=\tan^{-1}\big[\tan\big(\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)\big]=\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
Thus, $\text{f'(x)}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big)=\frac{1}{2}$

If $\text{y}=\sin(\log\text{x})$ prove that $\text{x}^2\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}+\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}=0$
AnswerHere,
$\text{y}=\sin(\log\text{x})$
Differentiating w.r.t.x, we get
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\cos(\log\text{x})}{\text{x}}$
Differentiating w.r.t.x, we get
$\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}=\frac{-\sin(\log\text{x})-\cos(\log\text{x})}{\text{x}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}=\frac{-\sin(\log\text{x})}{\text{x}^2}-\frac{\cos(\log\text{x})}{\text{x}^2}{}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}=\frac{-\text{y}}{\text{x}^2}-\frac{1}{\text{x}}\times\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}+\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}=0$

Differentiate the following w.r.t. x:
$\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{3\text{a}^2\text{x}-\text{x}^3}{\text{a}^3-3\text{ax}^2}\Big),\frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}}<\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}<\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
AnswerLet $\text{y}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{3\text{a}^2\text{x}-\text{x}^3}{\text{a}^3-3\text{ax}^2}\Big)$
Put $\text{x}=\text{a}\tan\theta\Rightarrow\ \theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}$
$\therefore\ \text{y}=\tan^{-1}\bigg[\frac{3\tan\theta-\tan^3\theta}{1-3\tan^2\theta}\bigg]$ $\bigg[\because\tan3\theta=\frac{3\tan\theta-\tan^3\theta}{1-3\tan^2\theta}\bigg]$
$=\tan^{-1}(\tan3\theta)=3\theta$
$=3\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}\Big[\because\theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}\Big]$
$\therefore\ \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=3\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\tan^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}$ $=3\cdot\Bigg[\frac{1}{1+\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{a}^2}}\Bigg]\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\cdot\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}\Big)$
$=3\cdot\frac{\text{a}^2}{\text{a}^2+\text{x}^2}.=\frac{1}{\text{a}}=\frac{3\text{a}}{\text{a}^2+\text{x}^2}$
