Differentiation Question 278

Question: $ \frac{d}{dx}[e^{ax}\cos (bx+c)] $ =

[AISSE 1989]

Options:

A) $ e^{ax}[a\cos (bx+c)-b\sin (bx+c)] $

B) $ e^{ax}[a\sin (bx+c)-b\cos (bx+c)] $

C) $ e^{ax}[\cos (bx+c)-\sin (bx+c)] $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ \frac{d}{dx}[e^{ax}\cos (bx+c)] $ = $ \frac{dx}{dt}=-2\sin t+2\sin 2t $

= $ e^{ax}[a\cos (bx+c)-b\sin (bx+c)] $ .
