Answer

$$ y^{\prime}=\frac{d}{dx} \left[ y \right] = \frac{d}{dx} \left[ x \sin ^{-1} x+\sqrt{1-x^{2}} \right] =\sin ^{-1} x $$

Work Step by Step

$$ y=x \sin ^{-1} x+\sqrt{1-x^{2}} $$ Differentiating both sides of this equation we have $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{d}{dx} \left[ y \right] &= \frac{d}{dx} \left[ x \sin ^{-1} x+\sqrt{1-x^{2}} \right] \\ y^{\prime}&=x \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}+\left(\sin ^{-1} x\right)(1)+\frac{1}{2}\left(1-x^{2}\right)^{-1 / 2}(-2 x) \\ &=\frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}+\sin ^{-1} x-\frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}} \\ &=\sin ^{-1} x \end{aligned} $$
