#(df)/(dx)=(4xcscxcotx+4cscxcotx-4cscx-1)/(x-4cscx)^2#

Explanation:

According to quotient rule

#d/dx((f(x))/(g(x)))=(d/dx(f(x))xxg(x)-f(x)xxd/dx(g(x)))/((g(x))^2#

Hence as #f(x)=(x+1)/(x-4cscx)#

#(df)/(dx)=(d/dx(x+1)xx(x-4cscx)-(x+1)xxd/dx(x-4cscx))/(x-4cscx)^2# or
#(df)/(dx)=(1xx(x-4cscx)-(x+1)xx(1-4(-cscxcotx)))/(x-4cscx)^2# or
#(df)/(dx)=(x-4cscx-x-1+4(x+1)cscxcotx)/(x-4cscx)^2# or
#(df)/(dx)=(x-4cscx-x-1+4xcscxcotx+4cscxcotx)/(x-4cscx)^2# or
#(df)/(dx)=(4xcscxcotx+4cscxcotx-4cscx-1)/(x-4cscx)^2#
