How do you find the derivative of y = arcsin(x^5) ? Calculus Differentiating Trigonometric Functions Differentiating Inverse Trigonometric Functions 1 Answer Eddie Jun 23, 2016 y' = (5x^4)/(sqrt{1 - x^{10}) Explanation: y = arcsin(x^5) sin y = x^5 cos y \ y' = 5x^4 y' = (5x^4)/(cos y) y' = (5x^4)/(sqrt{1 - sin^2 y}) y' = (5x^4)/(sqrt{1 - (x^5)^2}) y' = (5x^4)/(sqrt{1 - x^{10}) Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of f(x)=sin^-1(x) ?
