  1. Given that \(y = ( \operatorname { arcosh } 3 x ) ^ { 2 }\), where \(3 x > 1\), show that
    1. \(\left( 9 x ^ { 2 } - 1 \right) \left( \frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} x } \right) ^ { 2 } = 36 y\),
    2. \(\left( 9 x ^ { 2 } - 1 \right) \frac { \mathrm { d } ^ { 2 } y } { \mathrm {~d} x ^ { 2 } } + 9 x \frac { \mathrm {~d} y } { \mathrm {~d} x } = 18\).
