This document provides the derivatives of various inverse trigonometric functions. It lists the derivatives of sin-1(u), cos-1(u), tan-1(u), cot-1(u), sec-1(u), and csc-1(u). It then works through 8 examples of finding the derivatives of expressions involving these inverse trig functions using u-substitution and other derivative rules.
