\frac{\cos{\left(x \right)} \sec{\left(x \right)}}{\log{\left(\tan{\left(x \right)} \right)}}

(sec(x)*cos(x))/log(tan(x))

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

$\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$

$f{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)} \sec{\left(x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = \log{\left(\tan{\left(x \right)} \right)}$ .

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Apply the product rule:
  
  $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} g{\left(x \right)} = f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$
  
  $f{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$ ; to find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
  1. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
    
    $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \sin{\left(x \right)}$
  $g{\left(x \right)} = \sec{\left(x \right)}$ ; to find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
  1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
    
    $\sec{\left(x \right)} = \frac{1}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}$
  2. Let $u = \cos{\left(x \right)}$ .
  3. Apply the power rule: $\frac{1}{u}$ goes to $- \frac{1}{u^{2}}$
  4. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(x \right)}$ :
    1. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \sin{\left(x \right)}$
    The result of the chain rule is:
    
    $\frac{\sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
  The result is: $- \sin{\left(x \right)} \sec{\left(x \right)} + \frac{\sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}$
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Let $u = \tan{\left(x \right)}$ .
2. The derivative of $\log{\left(u \right)}$ is $\frac{1}{u}$ .
3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \tan{\left(x \right)}$ :
  1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
    
    $\tan{\left(x \right)} = \frac{\sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}$
  2. Apply the quotient rule, which is:
    
    $\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
    
    $f{\left(x \right)} = \sin{\left(x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$ .
    
    To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
    1. The derivative of sine is cosine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(x \right)}$
    To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
    1. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \sin{\left(x \right)}$
    Now plug in to the quotient rule:
    
    $\frac{\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
  The result of the chain rule is:
  
  $\frac{\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)} \tan{\left(x \right)}}$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$\frac{\left(- \sin{\left(x \right)} \sec{\left(x \right)} + \frac{\sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}\right) \log{\left(\tan{\left(x \right)} \right)} - \frac{\left(\sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} + \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \sec{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)} \tan{\left(x \right)}}}{\log{\left(\tan{\left(x \right)} \right)}^{2}}$
Now simplify:

$- \frac{2}{\log{\left(\tan{\left(x \right)} \right)}^{2} \sin{\left(2 x \right)}}$

The answer is:

- \frac{2}{\log{\left(\tan{\left(x \right)} \right)}^{2} \sin{\left(2 x \right)}}
