Detail solution
  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:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
     5          
6*sin (x)*cos(x)
$$6 \sin^{5}{\left(x \right)} \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
     4    /     2           2   \
6*sin (x)*\- sin (x) + 5*cos (x)/
$$6 \left(- \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + 5 \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}$$
The third derivative [src]
      3    /       2           2   \       
24*sin (x)*\- 4*sin (x) + 5*cos (x)/*cos(x)
$$24 \left(- 4 \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + 5 \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \sin^{3}{\left(x \right)} \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
