Let f(x)=\sec^{-1}x. Then \sec f(x)=x, and differentiating both sides with respect to x gives

(\sec f(x))'=\sec f(x)\tan f(x)\,f'(x)=1
f'(x)=\dfrac1{\sec f(x)\tan f(x)}

Now, when x=\sqrt2, you get

(\sec^{-1})'(\sqrt2)=f'(\sqrt2)=\dfrac1{\sec\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)\tan\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)}

You have \sec^{-1}\sqrt2=\dfrac\pi4, so \sec\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)=\sqrt2 and \tan\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)=1. So (\sec^{-1})'(\sqrt2)=\dfrac1{\sqrt2\times1}=\dfrac1{\sqrt2}

A civil engineer is designing a public parking lot for the new town hall. The number of cars in each row should be six less than
alisha [4.7K]

The equation which the civil engineer can use to find the number of rows is 2x² - 12x = 112. Option D

<h3>How to determine the equation</h3>

Let the number of rows be x

Number of cars in each row = x - 6 = 56

Number of rows for parking lot = 2x

Then,

Number of cars for new parking lot = 2x ( x - 6 = 56)

Expand the expression,

2 ( x - 6 = 56)

2x² - 12x = 112

Thus, the equation which the civil engineer can use to find the number of rows is 2x² - 12x = 112. Option D
