What is the derivative of:
tan^4(3x)
The teacher wrote 4TAN^3(x) + sec^2(3x)(3) but i think he made a mistake.
I know that tan^4(3x) = tan(3x)^4 and that this equals 4tan(3x) in algebra
When I derive this i get the following: sec^2(3x)(3) I'm not sure what to do with the coefficient 4. Can someone give me the exact derivative formula to work this term out so I can copy it down please.
thanks
