    Recall in this problem that the derivative of cotangent X is negative cosecant squared X. And recall that the derivative of the square root of X is 1 / 2 square roots of X. So when we look at this problem, we get our DYDX to be the derivative cotangent X is negative cosecant squared X -, 7. The derivative of the square root of X is 1 / 2 square roots of X, or in this case 7 * 1 / 2 square roots of X. And then the derivative of a constant is just zero.
