Answer

$e^{2x}$

Work Step by Step

Given: $f(x)=e^x \cosh x$ Now, $f'(x)=\dfrac{d}{dx}(e^x \cosh x)$ Apply the product rule: $f'(x)=\cosh x(\frac{d}{dx}e^x)+(e^x)( \frac{d}{dx}\cosh x)$ or, $=e^x \cosh x+e^x\sinh x$ or, $=e^x(\cosh x+\sinh x)$ Since, we have $\cosh(x) = \dfrac{e^{x} + e^{-x}}{2}$ and $\sinh(x) = \frac{e^{x} - e^{-x}}{2}$ Thus, $e^x(\cosh x+\sinh x)=e^{x}(\dfrac{e^{x} + e^{-x}}{2}+ \frac{e^{x} - e^{-x}}{2})$ or, $=e^{2x}$
