What is \lim_{h\rightarrow0}\frac{\sin^{2}(x+h)-\sin^{2}x}{h} equal to ?

  1. A. \sin^{2}x
  2. B. \cos^{2}x
  3. C. \sin 2x
  4. D. \cos 2x

Correct Answer: C. \sin 2x

Explanation

By definition, this limit represents the derivative of the function f(x) = \sin^2 x with respect to x. Differentiating \sin^2 x using the chain rule gives 2\sin x \cos x, which simplifies to \sin 2x.
