\displaystyle y' = 2 \csc^2 (2x)

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

Differentiation

DerivativesDerivative Notation

Derivative Property [Multiplied Constant]:                                                           \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [cf(x)] = c \cdot f'(x)

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿf’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]:                                                                                 \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

\displaystyle y = - \cot (2x)

Step 2: Differentiate

Trigonometric Differentiation [Derivative Rule - Chain Rule]:                   \displaystyle y' = - \big(- \csc^2 (2x) \big)(2x)'Simplify:                                                                                                         \displaystyle y' = \csc^2 (2x)(2x)'Basic Power Rule [Derivative Property - Multiplied Constant]:                 \displaystyle y' = 2 \csc^2 (2x)
