Use the power, product, and chain rules:
• product rule
• power rule for the first term, and power/chain rules for the second term:
• power rule
Now simplify.
You could also use logarithmic differentiation, which involves taking logarithms of both sides and differentiating with the chain rule.
On the right side, the logarithm of a product can be expanded as a sum of logarithms. Then use other properties of logarithms to simplify
Differentiate both sides and you end up with the same derivative:
