Question
Differentiate the following functions with respect to x:
$\sin^2(2\text{x}+1)$

Answer

Cobnsider $\text{y}=\sin^2(2\text{x}+1)$
Differentiate it with respect to x,
$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big[\sin^2(2\text{x}+1)\big]$
$=2\sin(2\text{x}+1)\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sin(2\text{x}+1)$
[Using chain rule]
$=2\sin(2\text{x}+1)\cos(2\text{x}+1)\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\sin(2\text{x}+1)$
[Using chain rule]
$=4\sin(2\text{x}+1)\cos(2\text{x}+1)$
$=2\sin(2\text{x}+1)$
$\Big[\text{Since}, \sin^2\text{A}=2\sin\text{A}\cos\text{A}\Big]$
$2\sin(4\text{x}+2)$
Hence, the solution is $\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\big(\sin^2(2\text{x}+1)\big)=2\sin(4\text{x}+2)$
