/ 2 \ cos\x + 1/
d / / 2 \\ --\cos\x + 1// dx
Let .
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
Apply the power rule: goes to
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
/ 2 / 2\ / 2\\ -2*\2*x *cos\1 + x / + sin\1 + x //
/ / 2\ 2 / 2\\ 4*x*\- 3*cos\1 + x / + 2*x *sin\1 + x //
