$f (x) = \frac{e^{x}}{\sin (x)}$

Step 1

Differentiate using the Quotient Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [\frac{f (x)}{g (x)}]$ is $\frac{g (x) \frac{d}{d x} [f (x)] - f (x) \frac{d}{d x} [g (x)]}{{g (x)}^{2}}$ where $f (x) = e^{x}$ and $g (x) = \sin (x)$ .

$\frac{\sin (x) \frac{d}{d x} [e^{x}] - e^{x} \frac{d}{d x} [\sin (x)]}{\sin^{2} (x)}$

Step 2

Differentiate using the Exponential Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [a^{x}]$ is $a^{x} \ln (a)$ where $a$ = $e$ .

$\frac{\sin (x) e^{x} - e^{x} \frac{d}{d x} [\sin (x)]}{\sin^{2} (x)}$

Step 3

The derivative of $\sin (x)$ with respect to $x$ is $\cos (x)$ .

$\frac{\sin (x) e^{x} - e^{x} \cos (x)}{\sin^{2} (x)}$
