How to work it out

1
We differentiate $f(x) = x^{5} \arctan\left(x\right)$ with respect to x. The rule that applies is the product rule.
$f(x) = x^{5} \arctan\left(x\right)$
2
Product rule: $(uv)' = u'v + uv'$ . Let $u = x^{5}$ and $v = \arctan\left(x\right)$ .
$u = x^{5},\quad v = \arctan\left(x\right)$
3
Differentiate each piece:
$u' = 5 x^{4},\quad v' = \frac{1}{1 + x^{2}}$
4
Put them in the rule:
$f'(x) = \left(5 x^{4}\right)\left(\arctan\left(x\right)\right) + \left(x^{5}\right)\left(\frac{1}{1 + x^{2}}\right)$
5
Simplify:
$f'(x) = 5 x^{4} \arctan\left(x\right) + x^{5} \frac{1}{1 + x^{2}}$
6
Differentiating once more gives the second derivative, which tells you about curvature:
$f''(x) = 20 x^{3} \arctan\left(x\right) + 5 x^{4} \frac{1}{1 + x^{2}} + 5 x^{4} \frac{1}{1 + x^{2}} + x^{5} \frac{-\left(2 x\right)}{\left(1 + x^{2}\right)^{2}}$
