This resource includes notes, examples, and assignment problems that include the following concepts.

• Developing the derivative formulas for using the quotient rule and chain rule.
• Using the chain rule to take the derivative of trigonometric functions that are composite functions.
• Using the chain rule twice to take the derivative of trigonometric functions that are composite functions using more than two functions.
• Writing the equation of the tangent line by finding a derivative that involves the a trigonometric function
• Analyze the x axis motion given a position function that is a trigonometric function

Comments about applications:

• I typically introduce tangent lines and x axis motion when I teach the power rule.
• In all subsequent derivative assignments (product rule, quotient rule …) I include one of each so students practice applications in every assignment.
