4*sin (x)
$$4 \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)}$$
4*sin(x)^2
Detail solution
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

    1. Let .

    2. Apply the power rule: goes to

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

      1. The derivative of sine is cosine:

      The result of the chain rule is:

    So, the result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
8*cos(x)*sin(x)
$$8 \sin{\left(x \right)} \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
  /   2         2   \
8*\cos (x) - sin (x)/
$$8 \left(- \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
-32*cos(x)*sin(x)
$$- 32 \sin{\left(x \right)} \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
