Given, 

f(x)=\frac{\sin ( x+a )}{ \cos x }

Now, As we know the derivative of any function  

\frac{d(\frac{y_1}{y_2})}{dx}=\frac{y_2d(\frac{dy_1}{dx})-y_1(\frac{dy_2}{dx})}{y_2^2}

Hence the derivative of the given function is:

\frac{d(\frac{\sin(x+a)}{\cos x})}{dx}=\frac{(\cos x)(\frac{d(\sin (x+a))}{dx})-\sin(x+a)(\frac{d(\cos x)}{dx})}{(\cos x)^2}

\frac{d(\frac{\sin(x+a)}{\cos x})}{dx}=\frac{(\cos x)(\cos(x+a))-\sin(x+a)(-\sin (x))}{(\cos x)^2}

\frac{d(\frac{\sin(x+a)}{\cos x})}{dx}=\frac{(\cos x)(\cos(x+a))+\sin(x+a)(\sin (x))}{(\cos x)^2}

\frac{d(\frac{\sin(x+a)}{\cos x})}{dx}=\frac{\cos (x+a-x)}{(\cos x)^2}

\frac{d(\frac{\sin(x+a)}{\cos x})}{dx}=\frac{\cos (a)}{(\cos x)^2}
