Question

Differentiate the given functions w.r.t. x.

cos x cos 2x cos 3x

Open in App
Solution

Let y = cos x cos 2x cos 3x

Taking log on both side, we get

log y = log (cos x cos 2x cos 3x) [log m×n×1=log m+log n+log l ]

or log y = log (cos x)+log (cos 2x) + log (cos 3x)

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

ddxlog y=ddxlog(cos x)+ddxlog(cos 2x)+ddxlog(cos 3x)1ydydx=1cos x(sin x)+1cos 2x(sin 2xddx(2x))+1cos 3x(sin 3x.ddx(3x)) dydx=y{tan x2tan 2x3tan 3x} =y{tan x+2tan 2x+3tan 3x} =cos x cos 2x cos 3x{tan x+2tan 2x+3tan 3x}
