Given,

f(x)=( x+ \cos x ) ( x - \tan x )

And the Multiplication property of derivative,

\frac{d(y_1y_2)}{dx}=y_1\frac{dy_2}{dx}+y_2\frac{dy_1}{dx}

Also the property 

\frac{d(y_1+y_2)}{dx}=\frac{dy_1}{dx}+\frac{dy_2}{dx}

Applying those properties we get,

\frac{d(( x+ \cos x ) ( x - \tan x ))}{dx}=(x+\cos x)\frac{d(x-\tan x)}{dx}+(x-\tan x)\frac{d(x+\cos x)}{dx}

=(x+\cos x)(1-\sec^2x)+(x-\tan x)(1-\sin x)

=(x+\cos x)(-\tan^2x)+(x-\tan x)(1-\sin x)

=(-\tan^2x)(x+\cos x)+(x-\tan x)(1-\sin x)
