integrate sec^2(2x)

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

integrate integrate? as in \(\iint\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= ln cos(2x)/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cos^3/3 2x^2/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's not \(\frac{lncos(2x)}{4}\) It's a standard integral. \[\int\limits \sec^{2}adx = \frac{1}{a} secax +C\]

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

@hogr-eng fair warning..it's against the site rulesto give an answer only (although i am not sure if that is the right answer) just a heads up ^_^ the site'sgoal is to help people learn so explanations/solutions are very much required that goes for you too @izanagi.wielder ;) hehe if you need more info check this out! :DDD http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k but how will i show you the work of integration

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Woops I made a typo: \[\int\limits \sec^{2}adx = \frac{1}{2} tanax +C\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And another typo lol \[\int\limits \sec^{2}adx = \frac{1}{a} tanax +C\]

OpenStudy (callisto):

^typo .....\[\int\limits \sec^{2}axdx = \frac{1}{a} tanax +C\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

woops again xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

cant we just agree that \[\int \sec^2 u = \tan u\] lol...deriving new formulas :PP

OpenStudy (callisto):

Since \(\frac{d}{dx}tanax = asec^2ax\), \(\int sec^2(ax) dx= \frac{1}{a}tan(ax)+C\) Now, a = 2, I think @watson can get the answer from the above hint. If not, let us know. @lgbasallote No, it should be \(\int sec^2u \ du\) for the left part...

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

lol that's understood :P

OpenStudy (callisto):

and also you've missed the '+C' for the right

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

lol perfectionists :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

int[int sex^2(2x)]= int[tan2x/2]= tan u/4 =ln(|cos u|)/4 ....... u=2x
