How do you differentiate #e^tanx#? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer maganbhai P. Mar 7, 2018 #e^(tanx)*sec^2x# Explanation: #(1)d/(dx)(e^x)=e^x# #(2)d/(dx)(tanx)=sec^2x# So, #y=e^tanxrArr(dy)/(dx)=e^(tanx)*d/(dx)(tanx),Apply(1)# #=>(dy)/(dx)=e^(tanx)*sec^2x,Apply(2)# Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
