Question
C) Is your answer to (B) actually tangent to y=(cos(2x))x?
To check your answers above:
1. Go to Desmos.com and graph y=(cos(2x))x.
2. Graph your answer to part (B) Is the line tangent to the graph?
![**Problem Statement:**
Let \( y = (\cos(2x))^x \)
**A) Use Logarithmic Differentiation to find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\)**
