The Chain Rule

The chain rule is a way to derive, mostly used in binomials or trinomials with some exponent.

"Derivative of the outside evaluated at the inside times the derivative of the inside"

Examples

In simple words, you put the exponent outside, you  never touch the argument, you put it exactly. Then you do the derivative of the argument.

Make a little algebra and it's done.

Don't forget to subtract 1 to the exponent.

Here you also have the option to change the roots.

To get the derivatives of these types of functions, you have to use product or quotient rules.
