Detail solution

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

$\frac{2 \left(\tan^{3}{\left(x \right)} - \cot{\left(x \right)}\right)}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$

The answer is:

$\frac{2 \left(\tan^{3}{\left(x \right)} - \cot{\left(x \right)}\right)}{\cos^{2}{\left(x \right)} \tan^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$
