Find $\frac{d y}{d x}$, when
as $x=$ cost
Differentiating it with respect to $t$,
$\frac{\mathrm{dx}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}}(\cos \mathrm{t})$
$\frac{d x}{d t}=-\sin t$ .....(1)
And, $y=\sin t$
Differentiating it with respect to $t$,
$\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}}(\sin t)$
$\frac{d y}{d t}=\cos t \ldots \ldots(2)$
Dividing equation (2) by (1),
$\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}=\frac{\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dt}}}{\frac{\mathrm{dx}}{\mathrm{dt}}}=\frac{\cos \mathrm{t}}{-\sin \mathrm{t}}$
$\frac{d y}{d x}=-\cot t$
$\left(\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}\right)=-\cot \left(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\right)$
$\left(\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}\right)=-\cot \left(\pi-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)$
$=-\left[-\cot \left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\right]$
$=\cot \left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)$
$\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
