What is the derivative of #f(x)=ln (x^2+2)#? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Shwetank Mauria May 12, 2016 #(df)/dx=(2x)/(x^2+2)# Explanation: Derivative of #f(x)=ln(x^2+2)# can be found using chain formula, as #f(x)=ln(g(x))# and #g(x)=(x^2+2)# Hence, #(df)/dx=1/(x^2+2)xx2x=(2x)/(x^2+2)# Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
