x cos x

Open in App
Solution

Ley y = x cos x

Differentiating twicely w.r.t. x, we get

dydx=ddx(x cos x)=x ddxcos x+cos x ddx(x)=(x sin x)+cos x.1=x sin x+cos x (Using product rule ddx(u. v)=udvdx+vdudx)and d2ydx2=ddx(x sin x+cos x)=ddx(x sin x)+ddx(cos x)={x cos x+sin x.1}sin x=x cos x2 sin x (Using product rule])
