log(x) ----------- ________ / 2 \/ x - 1
log(x)/sqrt(x^2 - 1)
Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
The derivative of is .
To find :
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
Apply the power rule: goes to
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
