Find the integral for
Solution:
You notice that the denominator contains trigonometric functions and we cannot integrate it by simple integration. This is a difficult one because the numerator has no trigonometric functions. If you will use the integration by parts, then the above equation will be more complicated and there will be an endless repetition of the procedure.
For this type of a function, like the given equation above, we can integrate it by Miscellaneous Substitution. Let's proceed with the integration technique as follows
Let
From the double angle formula,
Since the given problem has Sine and Cosine functions, then we can get the values of Sine and Cosine functions from Tangent function as follows
Using the figure above that
From the given problem
Substitute the values of dx, Sin x, and Cos x to the above equation, we have
but
Therefore,
