Proving differentiation formulas and identitiy

[Tracker]

I am trying to prove the follow two questions without using the differentiation formulas for inverse trig. or inverse hyperbolic functions.

 

[math] \arcsin(u) = \arctan(\frac{u}{\sqrt{1 - u^2}}) [/math]

 

I have been looking at it as [math] \frac{opp}{adj} = \frac{opp}{hyp} [/math] but something in my steps is off.

 

I am also trying to solve [math] \frac{d}{dx}[\tan(\arcsin(x))] = \frac{1}{(1 - x^2)^\frac{3}{2}} [/math]

For the first one consider a triagle with side-lengths 1, u, [math] \sqrt{1-u^2}[/math]. For the 2nd one use the result of the first one. Be sure to check the ranges, btw. Sidenote: I did not try them myself but these two approaches seem to be the obvious ones.
