Techniques of Differentiation - Derivatives of Natural Logarithmic Functions

Find the derivative of each of the following w.r.t \(x\):

  1. \(y = \ln \left[ \frac{\cos (x^2 + x + 1)}{\sqrt{\sin (2x^2 + 1)}} \right]\)
  2. \(y = \ln \left[ \frac{\tan (1 - 2x^2)}{\sqrt{1 - x}} \right]\)
  3. \(y = \ln \sqrt{\frac{\sin (1 - x - x^2)}{\cos 3x - \sin 5x}}\)
