Find the derivative of the following functions

Question:

Find the derivative of the following functions (it is to be understood that abcdp, q, r and s are fixed non-zero constants and m and n are integers):

$\frac{x^{2} \cos \left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)}{\sin x}$

Solution:

Let $f(x)=\frac{x^{2} \cos \left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)}{\sin x}$

By quotient rule,

$f^{\prime}(x)=\cos \frac{\pi}{4} \cdot\left[\frac{\sin x \frac{d}{d x}\left(x^{2}\right)-x^{2} \frac{d}{d x}(\sin x)}{\sin ^{2} x}\right]$

$=\cos \frac{\pi}{4} \cdot\left[\frac{\sin x \cdot 2 x-x^{2} \cos x}{\sin ^{2} x}\right]$

$=\frac{x \cos \frac{\pi}{4}[2 \sin x-x \cos x]}{\sin ^{2} x}$
