Questiondifferentiate $\cos (x) .$

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are differentiating the function $\cos(x)$ with respect to $x$ .
2. We assume basic knowledge of differentiation rules, particularly for trigonometric functions.

STEP 2

1. Recall the differentiation rule for $\cos(x)$ .
2. Apply the differentiation rule to find the derivative.

STEP 3

Recall the differentiation rule for $\cos(x)$ :
The derivative of $\cos(x)$ with respect to $x$ is $-\sin(x)$ .

STEP 4

Apply the differentiation rule:
$\frac{d}{dx} [\cos(x)] = -\sin(x)$
The derivative of $\cos(x)$ is:
$\boxed{-\sin(x)}$
