,
determine dy
dx

Taking the derivative of both sides with respect to x using the chain rule, we get:

2x(2y)(dy/dx) - 2y(2x)(sinx)(dx/dx) = 0

Simplifying, we get:

2xy(dy/dx) - 2xy(sin x) = 0

Dividing both sides by 2xy, we get:

dy/dx - sin x = 0

Therefore:

dy/dx = sin x

To find dy/dx, we need to apply the implicit differentiation technique. The given equation is:

x^2 * y^2 = cos(x^2 * y^2)

Now, we differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to x:

d/dx (x^2 * y^2) = d/dx (cos(x^2 * y^2))

Using the product rule on the left side:

(2x * y^2) + (x^2 * 2y * dy/dx) = d/dx (cos(x^2 * y^2))

Applying the chain rule on the right side:

(2x * y^2) + (x^2 * 2y * dy/dx) = -sin(x^2 * y^2) * d/dx (x^2 * y^2)

Using the chain rule again:

(2x * y^2) + (x^2 * 2y * dy/dx) = -sin(x^2 * y^2) * (2x * y^2 + 2y^2 * dy/dx)

Now, let's solve for dy/dx by moving all the terms involving dy/dx to one side:

x^2 * 2y * dy/dx + sin(x^2 * y^2) * 2y^2 * dy/dx = -(2x * y^2) + sin(x^2 * y^2) * (2x * y^2)

Factoring out dy/dx:

dy/dx * (x^2 * 2y + sin(x^2 * y^2) * 2y^2) = -(2x * y^2) + sin(x^2 * y^2) * (2x * y^2)

Finally, divide both sides by (x^2 * 2y + sin(x^2 * y^2) * 2y^2) to obtain dy/dx:

dy/dx = (-(2x * y^2) + sin(x^2 * y^2) * (2x * y^2)) / (x^2 * 2y + sin(x^2 * y^2) * 2y^2)

So, the value of dy/dx is given by the above expression.
