Derivatives of trigonometric functions

Rarely Tested

$$\frac{d}{dx} (\sin x) = \cos x$$
$$\frac{d}{dx} (\cos x) = -\sin x$$
$$\frac{d}{dx} (\tan x) = \sec^2 x$$
Standard derivatives for sine, cosine, and tangent functions.
Question 1

Let $$f(x) = \dfrac{\sqrt{1+\sin x} - \sqrt{1-\sin x}}{\sqrt{1+\sin x} + \sqrt{1-\sin x}}$$ for $$x \in \left(0,\ \dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)$$.

If $$g(x) = \ln(f(x))$$, find $$g''(x)$$.
