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

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

sec (x) + C

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int - \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply the Power Rule

: - \frac{1}{u}

= - (- \frac{1}{u})

Substitute back

u = cos (x)

= - (- \frac{1}{cos ( x )})

Simplify

- (- \frac{1}{cos ( x )}) : sec (x)

= sec (x)

Add a constant to the solution

= sec (x) + C

\int sec (x) tan (x) + csc (x) cot (x) d x

\int \frac{1}{2} y^{- 2} d y

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

\int \frac{x - 5}{x ^{2} ( x - 1 )} d x

\int \frac{x - 42}{x ^{2} ( x + 3 )} d x
