If `y=(sinx)/(x+cosx)`, then find `(dy)/(dx)`.

Answer» Here, `u(x)=sinx`, `v(x)=x+cosx`.
`(dy)/(dx)=((x+cosx)(d(sinx))/(dx)-sinx(d(x+cosx))/(dx))/((x+cosx)^2)`
`=((x+cosx)cos-sinx(1-sinx))/((x+cosx)^2)`
`=(xcosx+cos^2x-sinx+sin^2x)/((x+cosx)^2)`
`=(xcosx-sinx+sin^2x+cos^2x)/((x+cosx)^2)`
`=(xcosx-sinx+1)/((x+cosx)^2)`
