x=\frac{1-t^2}{1+t^2} \text { and } y=\frac{2 t}{1+t^2}

Put t=\tan \theta in both the equations, we get x=\frac{1-\tan ^2 \theta}{1+\tan ^2 \theta}=\cos 2 \theta and y=\frac{2 \tan \theta}{1+\tan ^2 \theta}=\sin 2 \theta

Differentiating both the equations, we get 

\frac{d x}{d \theta}=-2 \sin 2 \theta and  \frac{d y}{d \theta}=2 \cos 2 \theta .

Therefore 

\frac{d y}{d x}=-\frac{\cos 2 \theta}{\sin 2 \theta}=-\frac{x}{y}
