integral of 1/((cos(x)+sin(x))^2)

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

- \frac{1}{tan ( x ) + 1} + C

Solution steps

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

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int \frac{1}{1 + sin ( 2 x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{2 ( 1 + sin ( u ) )} d u

= \int \frac{1}{2 ( 1 + sin ( u ) )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{1 + sin ( u )} d u

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{2}{1 + v ^{2} + 2 v} d v

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{2}{1 + v ^{2} + 2 v} d v

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{1 + v ^{2} + 2 v} d v

Complete the square

1 + v^{2} + 2 v : (v + 1)^{2}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{( v + 1 ) ^{2}} d v

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{w ^{2}} d w

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{w ^{2}} d w

Apply the Power Rule

: - \frac{1}{w}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (- \frac{1}{w})

Substitute back

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (- \frac{1}{tan ( \frac{2 x}{2} ) + 1})

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 (- \frac{1}{tan ( \frac{2 x}{2} ) + 1}) : - \frac{1}{tan ( x ) + 1}

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

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{tan ( x ) + 1} + C

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

\int \frac{5 x ^{6}}{12 x ^{7}} d x

\int e^{6 x + 5} d x

\int \frac{12 x ^{3}}{e ^{x^{4}}} d x

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