$$\frac{{d}^{\mathrm{2}} {y}}{{dx}^{\mathrm{2}} }\:=\:\frac{{d}}{{dx}}\:\left(\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}\right)\:=\:\frac{{d}}{{d}\theta}\left(\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}\right)×\frac{{d}\theta}{{dx}} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\:\frac{{d}}{{d}\theta}\left(\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}\right)\:/\left(\frac{{dx}}{{d}\theta}\right)\:. \\ $$
