integral of (sec(x))/(2tan(x))

\int \frac{sec ( x )}{2 tan ( x )} d x

\frac{1}{2} ln tan (\frac{x}{2}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{sec ( x )}{2 tan ( x )} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{sec ( x )}{tan ( x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = tan (\frac{x}{2})

= \frac{1}{2} ln tan (\frac{x}{2})

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} ln tan (\frac{x}{2}) + C

\int \frac{x}{x - 14} d x

\int ln (x) \cdot x^{2} d x

\int x 5 x^{2} + 1 d x

\int \frac{e ^{- x}}{e ^{- x} + e ^{x}} d x
