integral of sec(x)sin(x)

\int sec (x) sin (x) d x

- ln ∣ cos (x) ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int sec (x) sin (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

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

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = cos (x)

= - ln ∣ cos (x) ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln ∣ cos (x) ∣ + C

\int ln (4 - 2 x) d x

\int 10 cos (x) + sec^{2} (x) d x

\int 18 csc^{2} (9 x) cot (9 x) d x

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

\int \frac{cos ( 2 x )}{2 + 3 sin ( 2 x )} d x
