SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding the derivative of the function \( y = \sin^{-1}(x^2 + 2x) \). The derivative is determined using the formula \( \frac{d}{dx}\arcsin(u(x)) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-u^2}}\,\frac{du}{dx} \). By applying implicit differentiation and substituting back for \( y \), the final expression for the derivative is \( \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - (x^2 + 2x)^2}} \cdot (2x + 2) \). This method provides a clear pathway to calculate derivatives of inverse sine functions involving polynomial expressions.

There are online calculators that will spit out the answer to this question, however if you want genuine help, we need to know what you've tried, or what your thoughts are on how to begin.

Suppose we are given:

$$y=\arcsin\left(u(x)\right)$$

And we are asked to find $$\d{y}{x}$$. Now one approach would be to memorize the following formula:

$$\frac{d}{dx}\arcsin\left(u(x)\right)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-u^2}}\,\d{u}{x}$$

Another approach would be to derive the formula by rewriting the given equation as follows:

$$\sin(y)=u(x)$$

Implicitly differentiate:

$$\cos(y)\d{y}{x}=\d{u}{x}$$

Hence:

$$\d{y}{x}=\frac{1}{\cos(y)}\,\d{u}{x}$$

Back-substitute for $y$:

$$\d{y}{x}=\frac{1}{\cos\left(\arcsin\left(u(x)\right)\right)}\,\d{u}{x}$$

And thus:

$$\d{y}{x}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-u^2}}\,\d{u}{x}$$

So, can you now apply this formula to the given question?
