Written solution

Let f(θ) = sin(tan⁻¹(sinθ/(√cos 2θ))), where -π/4 < θ < π/4. Then the value of d/d(tanθ)(f(θ)) is ______.

f(θ)=sin⁡(tan⁡−1(sin⁡θcos⁡2θ))f(\theta) = \sin\left(\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\sqrt{\cos 2\theta}}\right)\right)

−π4<θ<π4-\dfrac{\pi}{4} < \theta < \dfrac{\pi}{4}

To find: d f(θ)d(tan⁡θ)\text{To find: } \dfrac{d\,f(\theta)}{d(\tan\theta)}

Let ϕ=tan⁡−1 ⁣(sin⁡θcos⁡2θ)\text{Let } \phi = \tan^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\sqrt{\cos 2\theta}}\right)

⇒tan⁡ϕ=sin⁡θcos⁡2θ,f=sin⁡ϕ\Rightarrow \tan\phi = \dfrac{\sin\theta}{\sqrt{\cos 2\theta}}, \quad f = \sin\phi

sin⁡ϕ=tan⁡ϕ1+tan⁡2ϕ\sin\phi = \dfrac{\tan\phi}{\sqrt{1+\tan^2\phi}}

sin⁡2ϕ=sin⁡2θ/cos⁡2θ1+sin⁡2θ/cos⁡2θ=sin⁡2θcos⁡2θ+sin⁡2θ\sin^2\phi = \dfrac{\sin^2\theta/\cos 2\theta}{1+\sin^2\theta/\cos 2\theta} = \dfrac{\sin^2\theta}{\cos 2\theta + \sin^2\theta}

cos⁡2θ+sin⁡2θ=cos⁡2θ\cos 2\theta + \sin^2\theta = \cos^2\theta

sin⁡2ϕ=tan⁡2θ⇒sin⁡ϕ=tan⁡θ\sin^2\phi = \tan^2\theta \Rightarrow \sin\phi = \tan\theta

f(θ)=sin⁡ϕ=tan⁡θf(\theta) = \sin\phi = \tan\theta

d f(θ)d(tan⁡θ)=1\dfrac{d\,f(\theta)}{d(\tan\theta)} = 1
