Integration Help...

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Okay...

OpenStudy (darkigloo):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi/4} \frac{ e^{tanx} }{ \cos^2x } dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This can be approached with substitution. Notice that \[\frac{1}{\cos^2(x)}=sec^2(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\tan(x).\] I hope that helps.

OpenStudy (darkigloo):

So it looks like \[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi/4} \sec^2x e ^{tanx} dx\] ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep.

OpenStudy (darkigloo):

do i have to use u substitution?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep.

OpenStudy (darkigloo):

u=tanx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, that'll do it.

OpenStudy (darkigloo):

thanks i got e-1.
