The integral tan^3theta dtheta

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{}^{}\tan ^3\theta d \theta\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if we had a sec^2 it be nice :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I wrote the equation so it's be better to see :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, I've been playing around with this one...but not really getting anywhere...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

u = tan(t); tan-1(u) = t du = sec^2(t) dt dt = cos^2(t) dt = cos^2(tan-1(u)) .... i wonder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh parts! I hadn't tried parts...hmmm

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i think the trick is rather to split the tan^3 up into tan^2 and tan

OpenStudy (amistre64):

tan^2 and tan lol ...cant type

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yea, I had split them first off...I figured it's just make it easier to work with.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

tan^2 = (sec^2 - 1) (sec^2 -1)tan dt maybe?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Tried that and did a u sub. u =\[\sec \theta\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

id have to write it on paper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You split them and then you have: \[\int\limits \tan^2(x)\tan(x)dx=\int\limits (\sec^2(x)-1)\tan(x)dx=\int\limits \sec^2(x)\tan(x)dx-\int\limits \tan(x)dx\] Let u=sec(x) du=sec(x)tan(x)dx \[\int\limits u du-\int\limits \tan(x)dx=\frac{u^2}{2}+\ln|\cos(x)|+C=\frac{\sec^2(x)}{2}+\ln|\cos(x)|+C\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

thats the route I was thinking of :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yea, okay that works!

Thanks! Yes indeed, great job!

Is the part that's cut off the integral of tanxdx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its not cut off on my screen but if you mean the end of the first line then yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay cool
