Derivative of \( \displaystyle \operatorname{asin}{\left(3 x \right)} \)

Problem 2.473 · easy

Differentiate \( \displaystyle f(x) = \operatorname{asin}{\left(3 x \right)} \).
  1. \[ \frac{d}{d x} \operatorname{asin}{\left(3 x \right)} \]
    derivativeStart with the derivative of the function.✓ Proved
  2. \[ = \frac{\frac{d}{d x} 3 x}{\sqrt{1 - 9 x^{2}}} \]
    chainApply the chain rule.✓ Proved
  3. \[ = \frac{3}{\sqrt{1 - 9 x^{2}}} \]
    derivative algebraDifferentiate the inner function 3*x. Simplify the expression by squaring the 3.✓ Proved
Answer \( \frac{3}{\sqrt{1 - 9 x^{2}}} \)

✓ Nihil obstat Every line of this solution was proved by the computer algebra system SymPy. The answer was also checked a second way, without looking at the solution. Reviewers found nothing wrong with the explanation.

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence, not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by gemma4:26b, checked 2026-09-26 with SymPy 1.14.0.
