Problem 4. Differentiate the following with
respect to the variable: (a) y=4 sin 3tch 4t
(b)y=ln(sh 3θ)−4ch^23 θ.

(a) y=4 sin 3tch 4t(i.e. a product)
dy
dx

=(4 sin 3t)(4 sh 4t)+(ch 4t)(4)(3 cos 3t)

=16 sin 3tsh 4t+12 ch 4tcos 3t
= 4 (4 sin 3tsh 4t+3 cos 3tch 4t)

(b) y=ln(sh 3θ)−4ch^23 θ


(i.e. a function of a function)

dy

=

)
(3 ch 3θ)−(4)(2 ch 3θ)(3 sh 3θ)

=3 coth 3θ−24 ch 3θsh 3θ

= 3 (coth 3θ−8ch3θsh 3θ)

Problem 5. Show that the differential coeffi-
cient of

y=

3 x^2

is: 6xsech 4x(1− 2 xth 4x)

y=

(i.e. a quotient)

dy

=

(ch 4x)(6x)−(3x^2 )(4 sh 4x)

= 6 x[sech 4x− 2 xth 4xsech 4x]
= 6 xsech 4x(1− 2 xth 4x)

Now try the following exercise.
