Answer \( e^{5 x} \sin{\left(5 x \right)} \)
Top: the graph of f = -sqrt(2)·e^(5x)·cos(5x + pi/4)/10. A tangent line slides along it, and its slope is plotted below as it goes, tracing f' = sqrt(2)·e^(5x)·sin(5x + pi/4)/2 - sqrt(2)·e^(5x)·cos(5x + pi/4)/2.

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.
