Where is the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits dx/(cosx+2sinx+3)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-sinx+cosx/2+3x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still don't know what you mean

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

\[\int\limits\frac{dx}{cosx+2sinx+3} \] weierstrass substitution might work..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just know that the answer is arctan( 1+ tan(x/2) ) + c but i don't know the solution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@soati : what do you think about it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think I got it. Give me a minute to write it down. I like your integrals, theyre difficult!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let t=tg(x/2) => x=2arctgt and dx=2dt/(1+ t^2) by sinx=2t/(1+t^2), cosx=(1-t^2)/(1+t^2) then you can solve it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let \[u = \tan ({x \over 2})\] \[dx = 2 \cos^2({x \over 2}) du\] \[du = {1\over2}{1 \over \cos^2({x \over 2})}dx\] \[\int\limits {dx \over cosx+2sinx+3} = \int\limits {2 \cos^2({x \over 2}) \over cosx+2sinx+3}du\] Use the trig. rules: \[\cos(u \pm v) = \cos(u)\cos(v) \mp \sin(u)\sin(v)\] \[\sin(u \pm v) = \sin(u)\cos(v) \pm \cos(u)\sin(v)\] In our case: \[\cos(x) = \cos({x \over 2} + {x \over 2}) = \cos^2({x \over 2}) - \sin^2({x \over 2}) = 2\cos^2({x \over 2}) -1\] \[\sin(x) = \sin({x \over 2} + {x \over 2}) =2 \sin({x \over 2}) \cos({x \over 2})\] \[\int\limits\limits {2 \cos^2({x \over 2}) \over cosx+2sinx+3}du = \int\limits\limits {2 \cos^2({x \over 2}) \over 2\cos^2({x \over 2})+2*2\sin({x \over 2})\cos({x \over 2})+3 - 1}du \] \[\int\limits\limits {1\over 1+2{\sin({x \over 2}) \over \cos({x \over 2}) }+{1\over \cos^2({x \over 2})}}du \] Knowing that.. \[{1 \over \cos(u)} = \sec(x)\] \[1 + \tan^2(u) = \sec^2(u)\] \[\int\limits\limits\limits {1\over 1+2{\sin({x \over 2}) \over \cos({x \over 2}) }+{1\over \cos^2({x \over 2})}}du = \int\limits\limits\limits {1\over 1+2\tan({x \over 2}) +{\sec^2({x \over 2})}}du = \int\limits\limits\limits {1\over 1+2\tan({x \over 2}) +\tan^2({x \over 2}) + 1}du \] Finally replace tan(x/2) by u! \[\int\limits\limits\limits\limits {1\over 1+2u +u^2 + 1}du =\int\limits\limits\limits\limits {1\over (u+1)^2 + 1}du\] We know that \[\int\limits\limits\limits\limits {1\over u^2 +1}du = \arctan(u)\] So we get \[\int\limits\limits\limits\limits {1\over (u+1)^2 + 1}du = arctan( u+1 )\] Replace u by tan(x/2)... \[\int\limits\limits {dx \over cosx+2sinx+3} = \arctan(1+\tan({x \over 2}) ) + C\]
