Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. Apply the power rule: goes to

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

    1. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:

    The result of the chain rule is:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
       24          
-25*cos  (x)*sin(x)
$$- 25 \sin{\left(x \right)} \cos^{24}{\left(x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
      23    /     2            2   \
25*cos  (x)*\- cos (x) + 24*sin (x)/
$$25 \cdot \left(24 \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} - \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \cos^{23}{\left(x \right)}$$
The third derivative [src]
      22    /         2            2   \       
25*cos  (x)*\- 552*sin (x) + 73*cos (x)/*sin(x)
$$25 \left(- 552 \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + 73 \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \sin{\left(x \right)} \cos^{22}{\left(x \right)}$$
