Transform

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

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

$f{\left(x \right)} = \tan{\left(2 x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = 1 - \cot{\left(2 x \right)}$ .

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
  
  $\tan{\left(2 x \right)} = \frac{\sin{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos{\left(2 x \right)}}$
2. Apply the quotient rule, which is:
  
  $\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
  
  $f{\left(x \right)} = \sin{\left(2 x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$ .
  
  To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
  1. Let $u = 2 x$ .
  2. The derivative of sine is cosine:
    
    $\frac{d}{d u} \sin{\left(u \right)} = \cos{\left(u \right)}$
  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:
    
    $2 \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$
  To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
  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:
    
    $- 2 \sin{\left(2 x \right)}$
  Now plug in to the quotient rule:
  
  $\frac{2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}$
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Differentiate $1 - \cot{\left(2 x \right)}$ term by term:
  1. The derivative of the constant $1$ is zero.
  2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. There are multiple ways to do this derivative.
      Method #1
      
      Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
      
      $\cot{\left(2 x \right)} = \frac{1}{\tan{\left(2 x \right)}}$
      
      Let $u = \tan{\left(2 x \right)}$ .
      
      Apply the power rule: $\frac{1}{u}$ goes to $- \frac{1}{u^{2}}$
      
      Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \tan{\left(2 x \right)}$ :
      
      Let $u = 2 x$ .
      
      $\frac{d}{d u} \tan{\left(u \right)} = \frac{1}{\cos^{2}{\left(u \right)}}$
      
      Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} 2 x$ :
      
      The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
      
      Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
      
      So, the result is: $2$
      
      The result of the chain rule is:
      
      $\frac{2}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}$
      
      The result of the chain rule is:
      
      $- \frac{2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}$
      Method #2
      
      Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
      
      $\cot{\left(2 x \right)} = \frac{\cos{\left(2 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(2 x \right)}}$
      
      Apply the quotient rule, which is:
      
      $\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
      
      $f{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = \sin{\left(2 x \right)}$ .
      
      To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
      
      Let $u = 2 x$ .
      
      The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d u} \cos{\left(u \right)} = - \sin{\left(u \right)}$
      
      Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} 2 x$ :
      
      The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
      
      Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
      
      So, the result is: $2$
      
      The result of the chain rule is:
      
      $- 2 \sin{\left(2 x \right)}$
      
      To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
      
      Let $u = 2 x$ .
      
      The derivative of sine is cosine:
      
      $\frac{d}{d u} \sin{\left(u \right)} = \cos{\left(u \right)}$
      
      Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} 2 x$ :
      
      The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
      
      Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
      
      So, the result is: $2$
      
      The result of the chain rule is:
      
      $2 \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$
      
      Now plug in to the quotient rule:
      
      $\frac{- 2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} - 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}{\sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}$
    So, the result is: $\frac{2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}$
  The result is: $\frac{2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$\frac{\frac{\left(1 - \cot{\left(2 x \right)}\right) \left(2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}\right)}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}} - \frac{2 \sin^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)}}{\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} \tan{\left(2 x \right)}}}{\left(1 - \cot{\left(2 x \right)}\right)^{2}}$
Now simplify:

$\frac{2 \left(\tan{\left(2 x \right)} - 2\right)}{\left(\cot{\left(2 x \right)} - 1\right)^{2} \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} \tan{\left(2 x \right)}}$

The answer is:

$\frac{2 \left(\tan{\left(2 x \right)} - 2\right)}{\left(\cot{\left(2 x \right)} - 1\right)^{2} \cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} \tan{\left(2 x \right)}}$
