Answer

$$ g'(x)= \frac{1}{x(1+(\ln x)^2)}.$$

Work Step by Step

Recall that $(\tan^{-1} x)'=\dfrac{1}{1+x^2}$ Recall that $(\ln x)'=\dfrac{1}{x}$ Since $ g(x)=\tan^{-1}\ln x $, then the derivative, using the chain rule, is given by $$ g'(x)= \frac{1}{1+(\ln x)^2}(\ln x)'= \frac{1/x}{1+(\ln x)^2}= \frac{1}{x(1+(\ln x)^2)}.$$
