Explicit chain rule: quadratic and radicals: Find
for
, where
.
We can use the Chain Rule here:
. We shall calculate the factors separately:
![]()
For the radicals we have no rule for differentiation, so we must convert them to powers and use the Power Rule:
.
Upon simplification, we get 
Now we can substitute these into the Chain Rule and get

Finally, we wish to express the result entirely in terms of x by using the definition of u above:
