\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{2} tan (x))

\frac{1}{2} sec^{2} (x)

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{2} tan (x))

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= \frac{1}{2} \frac{d}{d x} (tan (x))

Apply the common derivative:

\frac{d}{d x} (tan (x)) = sec^{2} (x)

= \frac{1}{2} sec^{2} (x)
