The solution

You have entered [src]

log(cos(2*x))

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

log(cos(2*x))

Detail solution

Let $u = \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$ .
The derivative of $\log{\left(u \right)}$ is $\frac{1}{u}$ .
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$ :
1. Let $u = 2 x$ .
2. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
  
  $\frac{d}{d u} \cos{\left(u \right)} = - \sin{\left(u \right)}$
3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} 2 x$ :
  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: $2$
  The result of the chain rule is:
  
  $- 2 \sin{\left(2 x \right)}$
The result of the chain rule is:

$- \frac{2 \sin{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos{\left(2 x \right)}}$
Now simplify:

$- 2 \tan{\left(2 x \right)}$

The answer is:

$- 2 \tan{\left(2 x \right)}$
