Question
Differentiate the function sinx + cos6 x,  w.r.t to x.

Answer

Let y = sin3 x + cos6 x
Differentiating both sides with respect to x
$\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{d}{d x}\left(\sin ^{3} x\right)+\frac{d}{d x}\left(\cos ^{6} x\right)$   
= $3 \sin ^{2} x \times \frac{d}{d x}(\sin x)+6 \cos ^{5} x \times \frac{d}{d x}(\cos x)$ 
= $3 \sin ^{2} x \times \cos x+6 \cos ^{5} x \times(-\sin x)$        $[ \because~\left.\frac{d}{d x}(\sin x)=\cos x\ \& \frac{d}{d x}(\cos x)=-\sin x\right]$
 = $3 \sin x \cos x\left(\sin x-2 \cos ^{4} x\right)$
$\therefore$ $\frac{d y}{d x}=3 \sin x \cos x\left(\sin x-2 \cos ^{4} x\right)$
