integral of (tan^3(x))/(sec(x))

\int \frac{tan ^{3} ( x )}{sec ( x )} d x

cos (x) + sec (x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{tan ^{3} ( x )}{sec ( x )} d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int \frac{( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) ) sin ( x )}{cos ^{2} ( x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int - \frac{1 - u ^{2}}{u ^{2}} d u

= \int - \frac{1 - u ^{2}}{u ^{2}} d u

Expand

- \frac{1 - u ^{2}}{u ^{2}} : - \frac{1}{u ^{2}} + 1

= \int - \frac{1}{u ^{2}} + 1 d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= - \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u + \int 1 d u

\int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u = - \frac{1}{u}

\int 1 d u = u

= - (- \frac{1}{u}) + u

Substitute back

u = cos (x)

= - (- \frac{1}{cos ( x )}) + cos (x)

Simplify

- (- \frac{1}{cos ( x )}) + cos (x) : cos (x) + sec (x)

= cos (x) + sec (x)

Add a constant to the solution

= cos (x) + sec (x) + C

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{4} y - x^{2} y^{3})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (1 - (x^{2} + y^{2})^{\frac{1}{7}})

x \to 3 - lim (e^{\frac{7}{( x - 3 )}})

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{e ^{x^{2}}}{2 x})

\int_{1}^{2} (x - x) d x
