Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

    1. Rewrite the function to be differentiated:

    2. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

      and .

      To find :

      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. Apply the power rule: goes to

          So, the result is:

        The result of the chain rule is:

      To find :

      1. Let .

      2. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:

      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. Apply the power rule: goes to

          So, the result is:

        The result of the chain rule is:

      Now plug in to the quotient rule:

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

      1. Let .

      2. Apply the power rule: goes to

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

        1. Differentiate term by term:

          1. Apply the power rule: goes to

          2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

          The result is:
