C3 Trig differentiation Exam question

From part a) I got 4(1+tan^(2)4x) but I'm having trouble proceeding with part b) even after checking the mark scheme, can anyone help me out, thanks :smile:

So you need to differentiate 4+4tan24x4 + 4\tan ^24x

I assume the 4 is ok

Use the chain rule and the previous part to differentiate (tan4x)2(\tan 4x)^2

Of course, thanks for clearing that up :smile:
