16.7. Derivatives of Trigonometric, Logarithmic and Exponential Functions
Enter the trigonometric, logarithmic or exponential function in parentheses. Then tap the exponent key (x^) twice to take the first derivative or three times to take the second derivative. To find the third derivative, take the first derivative of the second derivative.
Examples
