integral of (3sin(x))/(cos^3(x))

\int \frac{3 sin ( x )}{cos ^{3} ( x )} d x

\frac{3}{2} tan^{2} (x) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{3 sin ( x )}{cos ^{3} ( x )} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 3 \cdot \int \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ^{3} ( x )} d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= 3 \cdot \int tan (x) sec^{2} (x) d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int u d u

= 3 \cdot \int u d u

Apply the Power Rule

: \frac{u ^{2}}{2}

= 3 \cdot \frac{u ^{2}}{2}

Substitute back

u = tan (x)

= 3 \cdot \frac{tan ^{2} ( x )}{2}

Simplify

3 \cdot \frac{tan ^{2} ( x )}{2} : \frac{3}{2} tan^{2} (x)

= \frac{3}{2} tan^{2} (x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{3}{2} tan^{2} (x) + C

\int \frac{2 x + 3}{x + 7} d x

\int (x + 8)^{2} d x

\int_{- 2}^{3} \frac{10}{x ^{4}} d x

\int e^{x^{2} - 5 x} d x

x \to 0 - lim (\frac{1}{e ^{x}})
