Question : 11
Total: 29
Differentiate the following function w.r.t. x:
y = (sinx)x+sin1x
Solution:  
y = (sinx)x+sin1x
Let u = (sinx)x and v = sin1x
Now y = u + v
dy

... (i)
Consider u = (sinx)x
Taking logarithms on both the sides, we have,
logu = xlog (sin x)
Differentiating with respect to x, we have,

From (i), (ii) and (iii)
We get ,
