You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = cosx
\n" ); document.write( "use definition of derivative
\n" ); document.write( "y' = d cos(x)/dx = limit as delta approaches 0 of ((cos(x+delta) - cosx) / delta)
\n" ); document.write( "now use the definition of cos (a +b)
\n" ); document.write( "y' = d cos(x)/dx = limit as delta approaches 0 of (cos(x)cos(delta)-sin(x)sin(delta)-cos(x) / delta) = limit as delta approaches 0 of [(cos(delta)-1/delta * cos(x)) - (sin(delta)/delta * sin(x)]
\n" ); document.write( "now use limits for sin and cos
\n" ); document.write( "y' = d cos(x)/dx = (0 * cos(x)) - (1 * sin(x) = -sin(x)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
