The solution

You have entered [src]
cos(4*x)
$$\cos{\left(4 x \right)}$$
cos(4*x)
Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:

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

    1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. Apply the power rule: goes to

      So, the result is:

    The result of the chain rule is:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
-4*sin(4*x)
$$- 4 \sin{\left(4 x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
-16*cos(4*x)
$$- 16 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}$$
The third derivative [src]
64*sin(4*x)
$$64 \sin{\left(4 x \right)}$$
