Derivatives of Trigo Functions

This document discusses differentiation rules for trigonometric functions. It provides the derivatives of common trig functions like sin(x), cos(x), tan(x) and others. Examples are given to demonstrate taking the derivative of trig functions within larger expressions using trigonometric derivative rules and the product and quotient rules. Practice problems are provided at the end to find the derivatives of additional trig expressions.

Trigonometric Functions

In this section, we will learn about:


Derivatives of trigonometric functions
Fundamental Identities

• Reciprocal Identities:
1 1 1
csc q = sec q = cot q =
sin q cos q tan q

Quotient Identities:
sin q cos q
tan q = cot q =
cos q sin q
Fundamental Identities

• Pythagorean Identities:

sin q + cos q = 1
2 2

tan q + 1 = sec q
2 2

cot q + 1 = csc q
2 2
Even and Odd Properties

sin( -q ) = - sin q cos( -q ) = cos q tan( -q ) = - tan q


csc(-q ) = - csc q sec(-q ) = sec q cot( -q ) = - cot q
DIFFERENTIATION RULES

In particular, it is important to remember that,


when we talk about the function f defined for
all real numbers x by f(x) = sin x, it is
understood that sin x means the sine of
the angle whose radian measure is x.
DIFFERENTIATION RULES

A similar convention holds for


the other trigonometric functions
cos, tan, csc, sec, and cot.
 Recall that all the trigonometric functions are continuous
at every number in their domains.
DERIVS. OF TRIG. FUNCTIONS
We have collected all the differentiation
formulas for trigonometric functions here.
 Remember, they are valid only when x is measured
in radians.

d d
(sin x) = cos x (csc x) = - csc x cot x
dx dx
d d
(cos x) = - sin x (sec x) = sec x tan x
dx dx
d d
(tan x) = sec x

(cot x) = - csc x

DERIVS. OF TRIG. FUNCTIONS Example 1

Differentiate y = x2 sin x.

 Using the Product Rule and Formula 4,


we have: dy d d
= x2 (sin x) + sin x ( x2 )
dx dx dx
= x cos x + 2 x sin x

DERIVS. OF TRIG. FUNCTIONS Example 2
Differentiate f ( x ) = sec x
1 + tan x
d d
(1 + tan x) (sec x ) - sec x (1 + tan x)
f '( x ) = dx dx
(1 + tan x) 2
(1 + tan x) sec x tan x - sec x �
sec 2 x
=
(1 + tan x) 2
sec x(tan x + tan 2 x - sec 2 x )
=
(1 + tan x) 2
sec x(tan x - 1)
=
(1 + tan x) 2
DERIVS. OF TRIG. FUNCTIONS Example 3
Differentiate f(x) = 2 sin x + 3 cos x – x3
f’(x) = 2 cos x – 3 sin x – 3x2
f”(x) = -2 sin x – 3 cos x – 6x
DERIVS. OF TRIG. FUNCTIONS Example 4
Differentiate f(x) = tan x sec x
f’(x) = tan x Dx (sec x) + sec x Dx (tan x)
= tan x (sec x tan x) + sec x (sec2 x)
= sec x tan2x + sec3x

Exercises: Find the derivatives of the
following trigonometric functions:
1.f(x) = cos y cot y
2.f(x) = (sin x)/( 1 – 2cos x)
3.f(x) = (x - sinx) (x + cos x)
4.f(z) = (2 cos z)/(z+1)
5.f(y) = (tan y +1)/(tan y - 1)
6.f(z) = (z2 + cos z)/(2z – sin z)
