Let’s check out your problem:

y=(x)/(tan x)

y=xtanx y=\frac{x}{\tan x}

Full solution

Q. y=xtanx y=\frac{x}{\tan x}
  1. Identify expression: Identify the expression for yy.y=xtan(x)y = \frac{x}{\tan(x)}
  2. Simplify using identity: Simplify the expression using trigonometric identity. tan(x)=sin(x)cos(x)\tan(x) = \frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}, so y=x(sin(x)/cos(x))=x(cos(x)sin(x))y = \frac{x}{(\sin(x) / \cos(x))} = x \cdot \left(\frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}\right)
  3. Rewrite using cotangent: Rewrite the expression using cotangent.\newlinecot(x)=cos(x)sin(x)\cot(x) = \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}, hence y=xcot(x)y = x \cdot \cot(x)
