Questions & Answers

Q: What are the two methods for differentiating cosh(x)?

The first method involves taking the derivative of cosh(x) and applying the chain rule. The second method involves substituting x into the expression for cosh(x) and simplifying before taking the derivative.

Q: How does the first method work?

The first method involves taking the derivative of cosh(x), which is positive 6. Then, using the chain rule, we multiply this by the derivative of the inside function, Ln x, which is 1/x.

Q: What is the second method for differentiating cosh(x)?

The second method involves substituting x into the expression for cosh(x) and simplifying it. Then, we take the derivative of the simplified expression.

Q: How does the second method work?

In the second method, we substitute x into the expression for cosh(x) and simplify it to X + X^(-1). Then, we take the derivative of this simplified expression.
