/ 15 \ d |tan (x)| --|--------| dx\ 15 /
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
The derivative of sine is cosine:
To find :
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
The result of the chain rule is:
So, the result is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
