The solution
Detail solution
-
Rewrite the integrand:
tan2(x)sec4(x)=(tan2(x)+1)tan2(x)sec2(x)
-
There are multiple ways to do this integral.
Method #1
-
Let u=tan(x).
Then let du=(tan2(x)+1)dx and substitute du:
∫(u4+u2)du
-
Integrate term-by-term:
-
The integral of un is n+1un+1 when n=−1:
∫u4du=5u5
-
The integral of un is n+1un+1 when n=−1:
∫u2du=3u3
The result is: 5u5+3u3
Now substitute u back in:
5tan5(x)+3tan3(x)
Method #2
-
Rewrite the integrand:
(tan2(x)+1)tan2(x)sec2(x)=tan4(x)sec2(x)+tan2(x)sec2(x)
-
Integrate term-by-term:
-
Let u=tan(x).
Then let du=(tan2(x)+1)dx and substitute du:
∫u4du
-
The integral of un is n+1un+1 when n=−1:
∫u4du=5u5
Now substitute u back in:
5tan5(x)
-
Let u=tan(x).
Then let du=(tan2(x)+1)dx and substitute du:
∫u2du
-
The integral of un is n+1un+1 when n=−1:
∫u2du=3u3
Now substitute u back in:
3tan3(x)
The result is: 5tan5(x)+3tan3(x)
Method #3
-
Rewrite the integrand:
(tan2(x)+1)tan2(x)sec2(x)=tan4(x)sec2(x)+tan2(x)sec2(x)
-

Now substitute u back in:
3tan3(x)
The result is: 5tan5(x)+3tan3(x)
-
