Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

    1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

        1. Let .

        2. The derivative of sine is cosine:

        3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

          1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

            1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

              1. Apply the power rule: goes to

              So, the result is:

            So, the result is:

          The result of the chain rule is:

        So, the result is:

      So, the result is:

    2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:
