What's the derivative of arctan(x)/(1+x^2)? Calculus Differentiating Trigonometric Functions Differentiating Inverse Trigonometric Functions 1 Answer Andrea S. Oct 6, 2017 d/dx ( arctanx/(1+x^2) ) = ( 1- 2xarctanx )/(1+x^2)^2 Explanation: Using the quotient rule: d/dx (f/g) = (g * (df)/dx - f * (dg)/dx)/g^2 we have: d/dx ( arctanx/(1+x^2) ) = ( (1+x^2) d/dx arctanx - arctanx d/dx (1+x^2))/(1+x^2)^2 d/dx ( arctanx/(1+x^2) ) = ( (1+x^2)(1/(1+x^2)) -2x arctanx )/(1+x^2)^2 d/dx ( arctanx/(1+x^2) ) = ( 1- 2xarctanx )/(1+x^2)^2 Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of f(x)=sin^-1(x) ?
