The main reason is that the function: g(x) = sqrt( 10 - x^2 )
is a circle, so its derivative is very similar to tan x:

Your function f(x) is just a deformed circle.

yeah I know that was what I was originally trying to do,but the formula of f(x)'s derivative will almost always lead to a transformation of tan (x)

The tangent function, tan(x) is directly related to circles. The first derivative of a function gives the slope of the tangent line at that point, so it makes sense that the first derivative for a circle would give the tangent function.

Can we not do the same for cos and sin? Also I have not learned yet derivatives and alegrba 2, so i need a bit more explaining
