How do you differentiate #f(x) = (1-3sqrt(2x^2-1))^2 # using the chain rule? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Bdub Nov 1, 2016 #f'(x)=(-12x(1-3sqrt(2x^2-1)))/sqrt(2x^2-1)# Explanation: #f(x)=(1-3sqrt(2x^2-1))^2# #f'(x)=2(1-3sqrt(2x^2-1)) (-3)/(2sqrt(2x^2-1)) *4x # #f'(x)=(-12x(1-3sqrt(2x^2-1)))/sqrt(2x^2-1)# Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
