If $y=\log (\cosh x)$ then $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=$
If $y=\log (\cosh x)$ then $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=$
- $\operatorname{sech}^2 x$
- $-\operatorname{sech}^2 x$
- $\sinh x$
- $-\sinh x$
Solution
$y=\log (\cos \mathrm{h} x)$
Differentiating w.r.t. ' $x$ ' on both sides
$
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{1}{\cosh x}(\sinh x) \\
& \frac{d y}{d x}=\tanh x
\end{aligned}
$
Again differentiating w.r.t. ' $x$ ' on both sides
$
\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\operatorname{sech}^2 x
$
Hence, option (1) is correct
