For the more difficult one, you have to know the quotient rule. That is just gonna be something that you will have to memorize. Remember what trig functions like csc(x) are, just 1/sin(x). Then lastly, dont forget the chain rule if there is a function of x inside a function. Things like the derivative of tangent are again just something you will have to know.

Learned all of that and various applications in the finance industry in 1 quarter.

i don't understand how product rule isn't basic

did you even TRY to solve those?

brainlet here

yes, but we had only been studying calc for three weeks. I am able to solve them now, but at the time we had only learned how to do half the test the previous class session. compared to the other classes, we are blazing through the required units, about 2 ahead of the other classes in a course that requires 7

i've been hitting the books nonstop, and am feeling more confident with my abilities

I agree that it is basic, but instead they only teach you how to find the derivative of polynomials, exponential and power functions
