\frac{d}{d x} (arctan (\frac{c}{x}))

- \frac{c}{c ^{2} + x ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (arctan (\frac{c}{x}))

Apply the chain rule:

\frac{1}{( \frac{c}{x} ) ^{2} + 1} \frac{d}{d x} (\frac{c}{x})

= \frac{1}{( \frac{c}{x} ) ^{2} + 1} \frac{d}{d x} (\frac{c}{x})

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{c}{x}) = - \frac{c}{x ^{2}}

= \frac{1}{( \frac{c}{x} ) ^{2} + 1} (- \frac{c}{x ^{2}})

Simplify

\frac{1}{( \frac{c}{x} ) ^{2} + 1} (- \frac{c}{x ^{2}}) : - \frac{c}{c ^{2} + x ^{2}}

= - \frac{c}{c ^{2} + x ^{2}}
