# Chain Rule
$$ \dfrac{d}{dx} f(g(x)) = f'(g(x))*g'(x) $$
## Examples
> Given the function $(x^2+3)^4$, find the derivative.
Using the chain rule, the above function might be described as $f(g(x))$, where $f(x) = x^4$, and $g(x) = x^2 + 3)$.
1. First find the derivative of the outside function function ($f(x) = x^4$):
$$ \dfrac{d}{dx} (x^2 +3)^4 = 4(g(x))^3 $$
2.
# Trig Functions
$$ \lim_{x \to 0} \dfrac{\sin x}{x} = 1 $$
$$ \lim_{x \to 0} \dfrac{\cos x - 1}{x} = 0 $$
