Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions - Introduction

By now, you should have seen the derivatives of basic functions such as polynomials. We will now start exploring the derivatives of trigonometric functions. First, let us list the rules:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \sin{x}=\cos{x}\)

\(\frac{d}{dx} \cos{x}=-\sin{x}\)

\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\sec^{2}x\)

\(\frac{d}{dx} \csc{x}=-\csc{x}\cot{x}\)

\(\frac{d}{dx} \sec{x}=\sec{x}\tan{x}\)

\(\frac{d}{dx} \cot{x}=-\csc^{2}x\)
Are you curious about how these rules were derived? Let's explore this in the next section. Note that these rules are also on our reference page on trigonometric differentiation.

Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions - Proof

Let's see if we can prove that
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\sec^{2}x\)
.
First, we start with the left hand side of the equation:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}\)
By the trigonometric identity of
\(\tan{x}=\frac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}\)
, we have:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\frac{d}{dx} \frac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}\)
Then, we apply the quotient rule:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\frac{\cos{x}\cos{x}-\sin{x}(-\sin{x})}{\cos^{2}x}\)
Simplify:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\frac{\cos^{2}x+\sin^{2}x}{\cos^{2}x}\)
Apply the trigonometric identity of
\(\cos^{2}x+\sin^{2}x=1\)
:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\frac{1}{\cos^{2}x}\)
Apply the trigonometric identity of
\(\frac{1}{\cos{x}}=\sec{x}\)
:
\(\frac{d}{dx} \tan{x}=\sec^{2}x\)
We are done. We have shown that the left hand side equals the right hand side, and that the derivative of
\(\tan{x}\)
is indeed
\(\sec^{2}x\)
.
