Section 1: Determine the derivative of the function.

1.) 𝑓(𝑥) = ln(2 − 𝑥) 2.) 𝑓(𝜃) = ln(cos 𝜃)

3.) 𝑓(𝑥) = cos(ln 𝑥) 4.) 𝑓(𝑥) = log 3 (𝑥 2 − 4)

𝑥 𝑎−𝑥
5.) 𝑓(𝑥) = log10 (𝑥−1) 6.) 𝑓(𝑥) = ln 𝑎+𝑥

7.) ℎ(𝑥) = ln(𝑥 + √𝑥 2 − 1) 8.) 𝐹(𝑥) = ln √𝑥

9.) 𝐺(𝑥) = √ln 𝑥 10.) 𝑓(𝑥) = √𝑥 ln 𝑥

11.) ℎ(𝑦) = ln(𝑦 3 sin 𝑦) 11.) 𝑦 = ln|𝑥 3 − 𝑥 2 |

 3𝑢+2
12.) 𝐺(𝑢) = ln √3𝑢−2 13.) 𝑦 = ln(𝑒 −𝑥 + 𝑥𝑒 −𝑥 )

14.) 𝑦 = ln(𝑥 + ln 𝑥)

Section 2: Use the Logarithmic Differentiation to determine the derivative of the function.

15.) 𝑦 = 𝑥𝑥

16.) 𝑦 = 𝑥 sin 𝑥

17.) 𝑦 = (ln 𝑥)𝑥

18.) 𝑦 = ln(𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 )
