\frac{d}{d x} (ln (sec (2 x)))

2 tan (2 x)

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (ln (sec (2 x)))

Apply the chain rule:

\frac{1}{sec ( 2 x )} \frac{d}{d x} (sec (2 x))

= \frac{1}{sec ( 2 x )} \frac{d}{d x} (sec (2 x))

\frac{d}{d x} (sec (2 x)) = sec (2 x) tan (2 x) \cdot 2

= \frac{1}{sec ( 2 x )} sec (2 x) tan (2 x) \cdot 2

Simplify

\frac{1}{sec ( 2 x )} sec (2 x) tan (2 x) \cdot 2 : 2 tan (2 x)

= 2 tan (2 x)
