Answer

$r'=\dfrac{\cos\sqrt { 2 \theta}}{\sqrt { 2 \theta}}$

Work Step by Step

Given that $r=\sin \sqrt { 2 \theta}$ Apply derivative rules of differentiation: $f(x)=p'(x)q(x)+p(x)q'(x)$ $r'=\dfrac{d}{dx}[\sin\sqrt { 2 \theta}]$ $=\cos\sqrt { 2 \theta}\dfrac{d}{dx}(\sqrt { 2 \theta})$ $=\cos \sqrt { 2 \theta}(\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt { 2 \theta}})\dfrac{d}{dx}(2 \theta)$ Hence, $r'=\dfrac{\cos\sqrt { 2 \theta}}{\sqrt { 2 \theta}}$
