integral of 1/(cot(3x))

\int \frac{1}{cot ( 3 x )} d x

- \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ cos (3 x) ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{cot ( 3 x )} d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int \frac{sin ( 3 x )}{cos ( 3 x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int - \frac{1}{3 u} d u

= \int - \frac{1}{3 u} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - \frac{1}{3} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = cos (3 x)

= - \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ cos (3 x) ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{3} ln ∣ cos (3 x) ∣ + C

y^{^{'}} = \frac{x ^{2} + 3}{y}, y (0) = 1

x e^{x}

x \to - 4 lim (16 - x^{2})

\int \frac{x}{( x - 1 ) ( x ^{2} + 2 x + 2 ) ^{2}} d x

x \to 0 + lim (\frac{2}{x})
