Detail solution
  1. Differentiate 2sin(x)12 \sin{\left(x \right)} - 1 term by term:

    1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. The derivative of sine is cosine:

        ddxsin(x)=cos(x)\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}

      So, the result is: 2cos(x)2 \cos{\left(x \right)}

    2. The derivative of the constant (1)1\left(-1\right) 1 is zero.

    The result is: 2cos(x)2 \cos{\left(x \right)}


The answer is:

2cos(x)2 \cos{\left(x \right)}
