Quotient rule
With the quotient rule you calculate the derivative of two functions, that are divided
Explanation
The quotient of two functions f and g can be written as a product
We use the product rule and find
With the chain rule, that must be applied to the last term you get
This can be written as
so that
Example 1
You can calculate the derivative of the tangent as
