Answer

(a) $dy = (cot~\theta)~d\theta$ (b) $dy = \frac{e^x}{(1-e^x)^2}~dx$

Work Step by Step

(a) $y = ln~(sin~\theta)$ $\frac{dy}{d\theta} = \frac{1}{sin~\theta}\cdot~(cos~\theta)$ $\frac{dy}{d\theta} = \frac{cos~\theta}{sin~\theta}$ $\frac{dy}{d\theta} = cot~\theta$ $dy = (cot~\theta)~d\theta$ (b) $y = \frac{e^x}{1-e^x}$ $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{(e^x)(1-e^x)-(e^x)(-e^x)}{(1-e^x)^2}$ $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{e^x-e^{2x}+e^{2x}}{(1-e^x)^2}$ $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{e^x}{(1-e^x)^2}$ $dy = \frac{e^x}{(1-e^x)^2}~dx$
