What is the derivative of #sqrt[arctan(x)]#? Calculus Differentiating Trigonometric Functions Differentiating Inverse Trigonometric Functions 1 Answer Truong-Son N. Jun 12, 2015 #d/(dx) sqrtu = 1/(2sqrtu) * (du)/(dx)# #d/(dx) arctanu = 1/(1+u^2) * (du)/(dx)# Putting them together: #d/(dx)[sqrt(arctanx)] = 1/(2sqrt(arctanx))*1/(1+x^2)# #= 1/(2(1+x^2)sqrtarctanx)# Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of #f(x)=sin^-1(x)# ?
