How do you differentiate # y = sin (x^2+2)# using the chain rule? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Shaun Y. · mason m Dec 25, 2015 #y'=2x cos(x^2+2)# Explanation: To differentiate this, we have to use #D_x Sinu= cosx D_x u# So #y= sin(x^2+ 2)# #y'= cos(x^2+2)(2x)# #y'=2x cos(x^2+2)# Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
