Question Cal problem

I have a question on finding the g(f(x)=H
f(x)=lsinxl, -pi<= x <= pi, and g(x)=x2

To find H(x)= (lsinxl)^2
Is this right and it equal to sin^2x
and How would I find the domain an range of h(x)
and tangent line to the graph h at x=pi/4

Would I have to take the deriviative of H to find the tangent line??

Thanks for the help, my teacher didn't explain any of this to our class.

Yes, that's right. You will have to take the derivative of H(x) to find the tangent. Have you learned the chain rule yet? This is an applicable case.
