cot(x)/(x^2 + 1)

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

$\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$

$f{\left(x \right)} = \cot{\left(x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = x^{2} + 1$ .

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. There are multiple ways to do this derivative.
  Method #1
  1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
    
    $\cot{\left(x \right)} = \frac{1}{\tan{\left(x \right)}}$
  2. Let $u = \tan{\left(x \right)}$ .
  3. Apply the power rule: $\frac{1}{u}$ goes to $- \frac{1}{u^{2}}$
  4. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \tan{\left(x \right)}$ :
    1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
      
      $\tan{\left(x \right)} = \frac{\sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}$
    2. Apply the quotient rule, which is:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
      
      $f{\left(x \right)} = \sin{\left(x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$ .
      
      To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
      
      The derivative of sine is cosine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$
      
      To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
      
      The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \sin{\left(x \right)}$
      
      Now plug in to the quotient rule:
      
      $\frac{\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
    The result of the chain rule is:
    
    $- \frac{\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
  Method #2
  1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
    
    $\cot{\left(x \right)} = \frac{\cos{\left(x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}$
  2. Apply the quotient rule, which is:
    
    $\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
    
    $f{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = \sin{\left(x \right)}$ .
    
    To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
    1. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \sin{\left(x \right)}$
    To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
    1. The derivative of sine is cosine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$
    Now plug in to the quotient rule:
    
    $\frac{- \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} - \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Differentiate $x^{2} + 1$ term by term:
  1. The derivative of the constant $1$ is zero.
  2. Apply the power rule: $x^{2}$ goes to $2 x$
  The result is: $2 x$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$\frac{- 2 x \cot{\left(x \right)} - \frac{\left(x^{2} + 1\right) \left(\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right)}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(x \right)}}}{\left(x^{2} + 1\right)^{2}}$
Now simplify:

$\frac{2 x^{2} + 2 x \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + 2}{\left(x^{2} + 1\right)^{2} \left(\cos{\left(2 x \right)} - 1\right)}$

The answer is:

$\frac{2 x^{2} + 2 x \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + 2}{\left(x^{2} + 1\right)^{2} \left(\cos{\left(2 x \right)} - 1\right)}$
