$$$\ln\left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)$$$ 的導數

求$$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(\ln\left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right)$$$。

函數 $$$\ln\left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)$$$ 是兩個函數 $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \ln\left(u\right)$$$ 與 $$$g{\left(x \right)} = x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}$$$ 之複合 $$$f{\left(g{\left(x \right)} \right)}$$$。

應用鏈式法則 $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(f{\left(g{\left(x \right)} \right)}\right) = \frac{d}{du} \left(f{\left(u \right)}\right) \frac{d}{dx} \left(g{\left(x \right)}\right)$$$：

$${\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(\ln\left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right)\right)} = {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) \frac{d}{dx} \left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right)}$$

自然對數的導數為 $$$\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right) = \frac{1}{u}$$$：

$${\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\ln\left(u\right)\right)\right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right) = {\color{red}\left(\frac{1}{u}\right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)$$

返回原變數：

$$\frac{\frac{d}{dx} \left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)}{{\color{red}\left(u\right)}} = \frac{\frac{d}{dx} \left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)}{{\color{red}\left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)}}$$

和/差的導數等於導數的和/差：

$$\frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right)}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right) + \frac{d}{dx} \left(\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right)}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

套用冪次法則 $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{n}\right) = n x^{n - 1}$$$，取 $$$n = 1$$$，也就是 $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right) = 1$$$：

$$\frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right)\right)} + \frac{d}{dx} \left(\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{{\color{red}\left(1\right)} + \frac{d}{dx} \left(\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

函數 $$$\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}$$$ 是兩個函數 $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \sqrt{u}$$$ 與 $$$g{\left(x \right)} = x^{2} + 1$$$ 之複合 $$$f{\left(g{\left(x \right)} \right)}$$$。

應用鏈式法則 $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(f{\left(g{\left(x \right)} \right)}\right) = \frac{d}{du} \left(f{\left(u \right)}\right) \frac{d}{dx} \left(g{\left(x \right)}\right)$$$：

$$\frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right)} + 1}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\sqrt{u}\right) \frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2} + 1\right)\right)} + 1}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

套用冪次法則 $$$\frac{d}{du} \left(u^{n}\right) = n u^{n - 1}$$$，取 $$$n = \frac{1}{2}$$$：

$$\frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{du} \left(\sqrt{u}\right)\right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2} + 1\right) + 1}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{u}}\right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2} + 1\right) + 1}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

返回原變數：

$$\frac{1 + \frac{\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2} + 1\right)}{2 \sqrt{{\color{red}\left(u\right)}}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{1 + \frac{\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2} + 1\right)}{2 \sqrt{{\color{red}\left(x^{2} + 1\right)}}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

和/差的導數等於導數的和/差：

$$\frac{1 + \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2} + 1\right)\right)}}{2 \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{1 + \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2}\right) + \frac{d}{dx} \left(1\right)\right)}}{2 \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

常數的導數為$$$0$$$：

$$\frac{1 + \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(1\right)\right)} + \frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2}\right)}{2 \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{1 + \frac{{\color{red}\left(0\right)} + \frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2}\right)}{2 \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

套用冪次法則 $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{n}\right) = n x^{n - 1}$$$，取 $$$n = 2$$$：

$$\frac{1 + \frac{{\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{2}\right)\right)}}{2 \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{1 + \frac{{\color{red}\left(2 x\right)}}{2 \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

化簡：

$$\frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} + 1}{x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$

因此，$$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(\ln\left(x + \sqrt{x^{2} + 1}\right)\right) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^{2} + 1}}$$$。
