I interpret that as
f(x) = ( sec(x^2) )^2
so f'(x) = 2(sec(x^2))*(sec(x^2))(tan(x^2))*(2x)
= 4x(sec(x^2) )^2 ( tan(x^2 )
Find f'(x) for f(x)=sec^2x^2

where did you get the (2x) at the end from?
Chain rule:
df(x^2)/dx
=df(x^2)/d(x^2).dx^2/dx
=df(x^2)/d(x^2).2x
df(x^2)/dx
=df(x^2)/d(x^2).dx^2/dx
=df(x^2)/d(x^2).2x
