Find the Derivative - d/dx sin(x)+cos(x)
sin(x)+cos(x)
Step 1
By the Sum Rule, the derivative of sin(x)+cos(x) with respect to x is ddx[sin(x)]+ddx[cos(x)].
ddx[sin(x)]+ddx[cos(x)]
Step 2
The derivative of sin(x) with respect to x is cos(x).
cos(x)+ddx[cos(x)]
Step 3
The derivative of cos(x) with respect to x is -sin(x).
cos(x)-sin(x)
sinx+cosx
