  1. algebra precalculus - How to remember the derivatives of inverse ...

    Mar 6, 2021 · I remember the derivatives of trig functions by naming 3x basic right triangles in a specific way and using ONE simple multiplication. Just wondering if there are similar approaches to …

  2. calculus - Can you propose any hack for remembering the common ...

    May 22, 2021 · Calculus cheat sheet Remembering the following formulas has been a nuisance for me for years now. Common Derivatives Common Integrals They are too many in numbers Intuition …

  3. calculus - The chain rule and squared trig functions - Mathematics ...

    Feb 15, 2012 · Perhaps it is one of the derivatives that you just remember: the answer is $-\csc^2 x$. Or if you don't remember this derivative, use the fact that $$\cot x=\frac {\cos x} {\sin x}$$ and use the …

  4. Why does the derivative of sine only work for radians?

    Jun 26, 2015 · In truth, this is not so: the sine of an angle measured in degrees, and the sine of an angle measured in radians are two different functions. As such, it is perfectly reasonable to suspect that …

  5. Geometric intuition for derivatives of basic trig functions

    May 26, 2015 · I was inspired by this question to try and come up with geometric proofs for the derivatives of basic trig functions--basically, those that have simple representations on the unit circle …

  6. calculus - Why are the derivatives of trigonometric functions again ...

    Oct 7, 2020 · Since all the trig functions have formulas in terms of the sine function, the product rule and the chain rule guarantee that if the derivative of the sine function stays in Trig World (my favorite …

  8. Derivatives of hyperbolic functions and Osborne's rule.

    Apr 12, 2015 · It seems to be that when you go from trig to hyperbolic and consider the derivatives, the derivatives always use the same function (although in hyperbolic terms rather than trig terms). But …

  9. Why do we require radians in calculus? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Mar 22, 2014 · I think this is just something I've grown used to but can't remember any proof. When differentiating and integrating with trigonometric functions, we require angles to be taken in radians. …
