Answer

$g'(x) = \frac{1}{1+x^2}$

Work Step by Step

$f(g(x)) = x$ $f'(g(x)) = \frac{d}{dx}(x) = 1$ Also: $f'(g(x)) = f'(g(x))\cdot g'(x)$ It is given in the question that: $f'(x) = 1+[f(x)]^2$ Therefore: $f'(g(x)) = (1+[f(g(x))]^2)\cdot g'(x) = 1$ $g'(x) = \frac{1}{1+[f(g(x))]^2}$ $g'(x) = \frac{1}{1+x^2}$
