The solution

You have entered [src]
sec(5*x)
$$\sec{\left(5 x \right)}$$
Detail solution
  1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:

  2. Let .

  3. Apply the power rule: goes to

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

    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 result of the chain rule is:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
5*sec(5*x)*tan(5*x)
$$5 \tan{\left(5 x \right)} \sec{\left(5 x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
   /         2     \         
25*\1 + 2*tan (5*x)/*sec(5*x)
$$25 \left(2 \tan^{2}{\left(5 x \right)} + 1\right) \sec{\left(5 x \right)}$$
The third derivative [src]
    /         2     \                  
125*\5 + 6*tan (5*x)/*sec(5*x)*tan(5*x)
$$125 \left(6 \tan^{2}{\left(5 x \right)} + 5\right) \tan{\left(5 x \right)} \sec{\left(5 x \right)}$$
