Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
Let .
The derivative of sine is cosine:
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Apply the power rule: goes to
The result of the chain rule is:
To find :
Let .
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Apply the power rule: goes to
The result of the chain rule is:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
/ 2/ 2\\ 2*x*\1 + tan \x //
/ 2/ 2\ 2 / 2/ 2\\ / 2\\ 2*\1 + tan \x / + 4*x *\1 + tan \x //*tan\x //
/ 2/ 2\\ / / 2\ 2 / 2/ 2\\ 2 2/ 2\\ 8*x*\1 + tan \x //*\3*tan\x / + 2*x *\1 + tan \x // + 4*x *tan \x //
