Evaluate: `intsec^4x\ dx`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

It is given that `int sec^4 x dx`
We can write it as
`= int sec^2 x sec^2 x dx`
So we get `= int (1 + tan^2 x) sec^2 x dx`
Take `tan x = t`
By differentiation we get `sec^2 x dx = dt`
It can be written as
`= int(1 + t^2) dt`
By integrating w.r.t. `t`
`= t + t^3/3 + c` ...
