How do you differentiate: ln(x^2 +1)? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Chain Rule 1 Answer Gió Jul 22, 2015 I found: (2x)/(x^2+1) Explanation: I would use the Chain Rule to dela with ln first and multiply times the derivative of the argument to get: (dy)/(dx)=1/(x^2+1)*2x=(2x)/(x^2+1) Answer link Related questions What is the Chain Rule for derivatives?
