Answer

$y' = -\dfrac{e^x\sin (e^x)}{\cos (e^x)}$

Work Step by Step

In order to derivate this function you have to apply the chain rule Let's make an «u» substitution to make it easier $f(u) = \ln(u)$ $u = \cos(e^x)$ Derivate the function: $f'(u) = \dfrac{u'}{u}$ Now let's find u' $u'= e^x\sin (e^x)$ Then undo the substitution, simplify and get the answer: $f'(x) = -\dfrac{e^x\sin (e^x)}{\cos (e^x)}$
