Derivatives of the 6 Inverse Trig Functions

This trigonometry textbook takes the learner from a basic understanding of angles and triangles through the use of polar coordinates on the complex plane. Written by a mathematician-engineer, examples and problems here are used to...

How can you calculate the height of a tree without having to climb it all the way to the top? The sixth installment of an 11-part Math in Science video series demonstrates how to use trigonometry to determine the height of a tree. 

What are the most important things about trigonometric derivatives? The 13th video in a series of 31 highlights three important aspects of trigonometric derivatives, the first being the derivatives of sine and cosine. The second is the...

Continue to differentiate the rest of the trigonometric functions. Pupils see the derivatives of the other four trigonometric functions and begin to memorize the rules. Learners see examples that show that the calculus portion of a...

Trig provides assistance in finding the derivatives of hyperbolic functions. The presentation provides an example of finding the derivative involving hyperbolic functions. Using the chain rule, the video finds the derivative of a...

Geometry to the rescue. By watching a video, scholars see how geometric concepts help explain derivative formulas: areas of rectangles and volumes of rectangular prisms for the Power Rule and similarity and trig ratios for the Sine Rule.

The shortcuts are not just for polynomial functions. Pupils learn the derivatives of the two basic trigonometric functions, cosine and sine. The video provides the derivatives for exponential and logarithmic functions. Learners work...

Sal takes the mystery out of the trigonometric identities by showing how easily they can be derived. He continues with a problem he started in the video �Trig Identities part three (part five if you watch the proofs) and proves the trig...

Graphically find the derivative of sin(x). Using the interactive, pupils graph the slope of the tangent line to the sine function. Class members use the resulting graph to determine the derivative of the sine function. They verify their...
