integral of 2tan(t)

\int 2 tan (t) d t

- 2 ln ∣ cos (t) ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int 2 tan (t) d t

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int tan (t) d t

Rewrite using trig identities

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{sin ( t )}{cos ( t )} d t

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= 2 (- ln ∣ u ∣)

Substitute back

u = cos (t)

= 2 (- ln ∣ cos (t) ∣)

Simplify

= - 2 ln ∣ cos (t) ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - 2 ln ∣ cos (t) ∣ + C

\int (y^{2} + 1)^{2} d y

\int \frac{2 x}{4 x ^{2} + 7} d x

\int \frac{4 ( ln ( x ) ) ^{2} + x}{x} d x

\int (x^{2} + x)^{9} (2 x + 1) d x

\int (3 + x^{2})^{3} d x
