If \(\cos (f(x))=\frac{1-x^2}{1+x^2}\) and \(\tan (g(x))=\frac{3 x-x^3}{1-3 x^2}\), then \(\frac{d f}{d g}=\)
  1. \(\frac{3}{2}\)
  2. \(\frac{1+x^2+2 x^3}{\left(1-3 x^2\right)^2}\)
  3. \(\frac{2}{3}\)
  4. \(\frac{x^2+x^3}{\left(1+x^2\right)\left(1-3 x^2\right)}\)

Solution

Given, \(\cos (f(x))=\frac{1-x^2}{1+x^2}\) Put \(\quad x=\tan \theta\) \(\begin{aligned} \cos (f(x)) & =\frac{1-\tan ^2 \theta}{1+\tan ^2 \theta} \\ \cos (f(x)) & =\cos 2 \theta \\ f(x) & =2 \theta=2 \tan ^{-1} x \\ \tan (g(x)) & =\frac{3 x-x^3}{1-3 x^2} \end{aligned}\) Put \(\quad x=\tan \theta\) \(\begin{aligned} & \tan (g(x))=\frac{3 \tan \theta-\tan ^3 \theta}{1-3 \tan ^2 \theta} \\ & \tan (g(x))=\tan 3 \theta \\ & \therefore \quad g(x)=3 \theta=3 \tan ^{-1} x \\ & \therefore \quad \frac{f^{\prime}(x)}{g^{\prime}(x)}=\frac{2}{3} \\ & \therefore \quad \frac{d f}{d g}=\frac{2}{3} \end{aligned}\) Hence, answer is (c).
