integral of 1/((cos(2x)))

integral

\frac{1}{( cos ( 2 x ) )}

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

Solution steps

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

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int sec (2 x) d x

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int sec (u) d u = ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

= \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

Substitute back

u = 2 x

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

Add a constant to the solution

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

sin^{2} (x) cos^{5} (x)

32 e^{- 4} x

\frac{( x + 3 )}{( 2 x + 1 )}

5 x^{2} - 2

x^{2} e^{x^{2}}
