Detailed Solution

Step 1: Define the functions

Let $u = e^{\sin^2 x}$ and $v = \cos x$. We need to find $\frac{du}{dv}$.

Step 2: Find $\frac{du}{dx}$

Using the chain rule, we have $$ \frac{du}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx} (e^{\sin^2 x}) = e^{\sin^2 x} \cdot \frac{d}{dx} (\sin^2 x) = e^{\sin^2 x} \cdot 2 \sin x \cdot \frac{d}{dx} (\sin x) = e^{\sin^2 x} \cdot 2 \sin x \cdot \cos x = 2 \sin x \cos x e^{\sin^2 x} $$

Step 3: Find $\frac{dv}{dx}$

We have $v = \cos x$, so $$ \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx} (\cos x) = -\sin x $$

Step 4: Find $\frac{du}{dv}$

Using the chain rule, we have $$ \frac{du}{dv} = \frac{du/dx}{dv/dx} = \frac{2 \sin x \cos x e^{\sin^2 x}}{-\sin x} = -2 \cos x e^{\sin^2 x} $$

Final Answer: \(-2~cos~x~e^{sin^{2}x}\)
