Steps Using Definition of a Derivative

For a function f\left(x\right), the derivative is the limit of \frac{f\left(x+h\right)-f\left(x\right)}{h} as h goes to 0, if that limit exists.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}\theta _{1}}(\sin(\theta _{1}))=\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(\theta _{1}+h)-\sin(\theta _{1})}{h}\right)$$

Use the Sum Formula for Sine.

$$\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(h+\theta _{1})-\sin(\theta _{1})}{h}$$

Factor out \sin(\theta _{1}).

$$\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(\theta _{1})\left(\cos(h)-1\right)+\cos(\theta _{1})\sin(h)}{h}$$

Rewrite the limit.

$$\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\sin(\theta _{1})\right)\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\cos(h)-1}{h}\right)+\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\cos(\theta _{1})\right)\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(h)}{h}\right)$$

Use the fact that \theta _{1} is a constant when computing limits as h goes to 0.

$$\sin(\theta _{1})\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\cos(h)-1}{h}\right)+\cos(\theta _{1})\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(h)}{h}\right)$$

The limit \lim_{\theta _{1}\to 0}\frac{\sin(\theta _{1})}{\theta _{1}} is 1.

$$\sin(\theta _{1})\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\cos(h)-1}{h}\right)+\cos(\theta _{1})$$

To evaluate the limit \lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\cos(h)-1}{h}, first multiply the numerator and denominator by \cos(h)+1.

$$\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\cos(h)-1}{h}\right)=\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\left(\cos(h)-1\right)\left(\cos(h)+1\right)}{h\left(\cos(h)+1\right)}\right)$$

Multiply \cos(h)+1 times \cos(h)-1.

$$\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\left(\cos(h)\right)^{2}-1}{h\left(\cos(h)+1\right)}$$

Use the Pythagorean Identity.

$$\lim_{h\to 0}-\frac{\left(\sin(h)\right)^{2}}{h\left(\cos(h)+1\right)}$$

Rewrite the limit.

$$\left(\lim_{h\to 0}-\frac{\sin(h)}{h}\right)\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(h)}{\cos(h)+1}\right)$$

The limit \lim_{\theta _{1}\to 0}\frac{\sin(\theta _{1})}{\theta _{1}} is 1.

$$-\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(h)}{\cos(h)+1}\right)$$

Use the fact that \frac{\sin(h)}{\cos(h)+1} is continuous at 0.

$$\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sin(h)}{\cos(h)+1}\right)=0$$

Substitute the value 0 into the expression \sin(\theta _{1})\left(\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\cos(h)-1}{h}\right)+\cos(\theta _{1}).

$$\cos(\theta _{1})$$

Evaluate

$$\sin(\theta _{1})$$
