The video tutorial explains how to find the derivatives of composite functions using the chain rule. It covers the derivatives of inverse trigonometric functions, specifically inverse tangent and inverse secant. The tutorial provides step-by-step calculations, including simplification techniques, to derive f'(x) and g'(x). Key concepts such as the chain rule, derivative formulas, and simplification of expressions are discussed.

Why can't we simplify 10x^4 and 4x^10 in the expression for f'(x)?

• Because they are not like terms

• Because they are separated by addition

• Because they are constants

• Because they are in different functions
