integral of 2tan(x)

\int 2 tan (x) d x

- 2 ln ∣ cos (x) ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int 2 tan (x) d x

Take the constant out:

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

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

Rewrite using trig identities

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

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 (x)

= 2 (- ln ∣ cos (x) ∣)

Simplify

= - 2 ln ∣ cos (x) ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - 2 ln ∣ cos (x) ∣ + C

\int (1 - cot (x)) csc^{2} (x) d x

\frac{d}{d θ} (- 6 sin (θ))

\frac{d}{d x} (- \frac{1}{( 2 x + 8 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}})

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

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{x}{x + 5})
