What is the derivative of # ln(sin^2x)#? Calculus Differentiating Trigonometric Functions Intuitive Approach to the derivative of y=sin(x) 1 Answer AltairSafir May 11, 2018 Use chain rule #f(x)=h(g(x))# #f'(x)=h'(g(x)) g'(x)# Explanation: #ln(sin^2(x))# #(ln(sin^2(x)))'=# #=1/(sin^2(x))*(sin^2(x))'=# #=1/(sin^2(x))2*(sin(x))*(sin(x))'=# #=2/(sin(x))*(cos(x))=2/tan(x)=2 cot(x)# Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of #-sin(x)#?
