The correct Answer is:
To evaluate the integral \[ I = \int \frac{dx}{x \cos^2(\log x)}, \] we will use the substitution method. ### Step 1: Substitution Let \[ t = \log x. \] Then, differentiating both sides gives us: \[ \frac{1}{x} dx = dt \quad \Rightarrow \quad dx = x \, dt = e^t \, dt. \] ### Step 2: Rewrite the Integral Now, substituting \(x = e^t\) into the integral, we have: \[ I = \int \frac{e^t \, dt}{e^t \cos^2(t)} = \int \frac{dt}{\cos^2(t)}. \] ### Step 3: Simplify the Integral The integral simplifies to: \[ I = \int \sec^2(t) \, dt. \] ### Step 4: Integrate The integral of \(\sec^2(t)\) is: \[ I = \tan(t) + C, \] where \(C\) is the constant of integration. ### Step 5: Back Substitute Now, we substitute back \(t = \log x\): \[ I = \tan(\log x) + C. \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of the integral \[ \int \frac{dx}{x \cos^2(\log x)} = \tan(\log x) + C. \] ---
