log(sin(4*x))

Detail solution

Let $u = \sin{\left(4 x \right)}$ .
The derivative of $\log{\left(u \right)}$ is $\frac{1}{u}$ .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(4 x \right)}$ :
1. Let $u = 4 x$ .
2. The derivative of sine is cosine:
  
  $\frac{d}{d u} \sin{\left(u \right)} = \cos{\left(u \right)}$
3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} 4 x$ :
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
    So, the result is: $4$
  The result of the chain rule is:
  
  $4 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}$
The result of the chain rule is:

$\frac{4 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}$
Now simplify:

$\frac{4}{\tan{\left(4 x \right)}}$

The answer is:

$\frac{4}{\tan{\left(4 x \right)}}$
