Differentiate e^(xsinx)

Here you need to use the formula that the differential of e^f(x), where f(x) is any function, is equal to f'(x)e^f(x). So for our function we differentiate xsinx using product rule to give sinx + xcosx. By using the formula above we can show that the answer is (sinx + xcosx)e^(xsinx).

The point P lies on a curve with equation: x=(4y-sin2y)^2. (i) Given P has coordinates (x, pi/2) find x. (ii) The tangent to the curve at P cuts the y-axis at the point A. Use calculus to find the coordinates of the point A.


I'm supposed to calculate the differential of f(x)= sin(x)*ln(x)*(x-4)^2 using the product rule. I know what the product rule is but I can't split this into two bits that are easy to differentiate. How do I do it?
