integral of (cos^4(x))/(sin^4(x))

\int \frac{cos ^{4} ( x )}{sin ^{4} ( x )} d x

- \frac{1}{3} cot^{3} (x) + x + cot (x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{cos ^{4} ( x )}{sin ^{4} ( x )} d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int cot^{4} (x) d x

Apply Integral Reduction

= - \frac{cot ^{3} ( x )}{3} - \int cot^{2} (x) d x

\int cot^{2} (x) d x = - x - cot (x)

= - \frac{cot ^{3} ( x )}{3} - (- x - cot (x))

Simplify

- \frac{cot ^{3} ( x )}{3} - (- x - cot (x)) : - \frac{1}{3} cot^{3} (x) + x + cot (x)

= - \frac{1}{3} cot^{3} (x) + x + cot (x)

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{3} cot^{3} (x) + x + cot (x) + C

\int (3 x^{2} - 5 x + 3) d x

\int \frac{2}{5} x^{2} d x

\int \frac{7}{x} + \frac{1}{3 x ^{7}} d x

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

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 8 x - 9} d x
