Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(\sqrt{y}=\cos ^{-1} x \Rightarrow y=\left(\cos ^{-1} x\right)^{2}\) On differentiating both sides w.r.t. \(x\), we get \[ \frac{d y}{d x}=2\left(\cos ^{-1} x\right) \times \frac{-1}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}} \] Again, differentiating both sides w.r.t. \(x\), we get…
