integral of tan^2(x)*sec^4(x)

\int tan^{2} (x) \cdot sec^{4} (x) d x

\frac{tan ^{3} ( x )}{3} + \frac{tan ^{5} ( x )}{5} + C

Solution steps

\int tan^{2} (x) sec^{4} (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int (1 + tan^{2} (x)) sec^{2} (x) tan^{2} (x) d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int u^{2} (1 + u^{2}) d u

Expand

u^{2} (1 + u^{2}) : u^{2} + u^{4}

= \int u^{2} + u^{4} d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int u^{2} d u + \int u^{4} d u

\int u^{2} d u = \frac{u ^{3}}{3}

\int u^{4} d u = \frac{u ^{5}}{5}

= \frac{u ^{3}}{3} + \frac{u ^{5}}{5}

Substitute back

u = tan (x)

= \frac{tan ^{3} ( x )}{3} + \frac{tan ^{5} ( x )}{5}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{tan ^{3} ( x )}{3} + \frac{tan ^{5} ( x )}{5} + C

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

\int \frac{x}{x ^{2} + 1} + \frac{x ^{5}}{( x ^{6} + 1 ) ^{2}} d x

\int \frac{d}{1} (e^{- 3 x}) d x

\int ((sin (2 π x)) (cos (2 π x))) d x

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