Answer

$$2x\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} $$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & \sin \left( {2{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) \cr & {\text{Let }}\theta = {\cos ^{ - 1}}x \cr & {\text{Using the identity sin2}}\theta {\text{ = 2sin}}\theta {\text{cos}}\theta ,{\text{ then }} \cr & \sin \left( {2{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 2\sin \theta \cos \theta \cr & {\text{From the triangle we have that }}\sin \theta = \sqrt {1 - {x^2}} ,{\text{ cos}}\theta = x \cr & {\text{Therefore,}} \cr & \sin \left( {2{{\cos }^{ - 1}}x} \right) = 2x\sqrt {1 - {x^2}} \cr} $$
