I am trying to figure out how to prove the equality I circled below in red. I have figured out how to prove the text in blue but don't know how to use that to prove the equality I circled in red.
Below I will post the givens I'm trying to use and my guess of how to prove it.
P.S. I understand this only proves the chain rule in the special case where \(\displaystyle \Delta u \neq 0 \). This is from Stewart's Calculus and he does mention that this is not a full proof but I'm very curious how to prove this special case anyway.

I'm not sure if I'm using the right givens below.
In their blue form it looks like I will be able to use the transitive property of implication \(\displaystyle (a \rightarrow b \wedge b \rightarrow c) \rightarrow (a \rightarrow c)\) if I can always let the \(\displaystyle \epsilon\) from the 1st given equal the \(\displaystyle \delta\) from the second line.

try this. you need to scratch the notation and locate the theorem that you actually want to prove.
