Answer:

definition of perpendicular bisector

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to show the entire problem including the given.

I assume the given info states that

Segment MP is the perpendicular bisector of segment NO.

If that's the case, then the reason for lengths NP and OP being equal is

"definition of perpendicular bisector"

$\bf f(x)=\sqrt{cos(6x)}\implies f(x)=[cos(6x)]^{\frac{1}{2}}
\\\\\\
f'(x)=\stackrel{\textit{using the chain-rule}}{\cfrac{1}{2}[cos(6x)]^{-\frac{1}{2}}~\cdot ~-sin(6x)~\cdot ~6}\implies f'(x)=\cfrac{-6sin(6x)}{2[cos(6x)]^{\frac{1}{2}}}
\\\\\\
f'(x)=\cfrac{-3sin(6x)}{\sqrt{cos(6x)}}

$\bf y=csc(\sqrt{x})\implies y=csc\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=\stackrel{\textit{using the chain-rule}}{-csc\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)cot\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)~\cdot ~\cfrac{1}{2}x^{-\frac{1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=-\cfrac{csc\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)cot\left( x^{\frac{1}{2}} \right)}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=-\cfrac{csc(\sqrt{x})cot(\sqrt{x})}{2\sqrt{x}}$
