hey guys more questions on integration
here it is :\[\int\limits dx/1+\cos^2x\]
@rational @iambatman
divide top and bottom \(\cos^2x\) then try substituting \(\tan x = u\)
\[\int \dfrac{1}{1+\cos^2x}dx = \int \dfrac{\sec^2 x}{\sec^2 x+1}dx = \int \dfrac{\sec^2x}{2+\tan^2 x}dx\]
You could also use cos^2x = 1-sin^2x identity but it will get messy, since you'll have 2- sin^2x, and then you'll have to use another identity
yep i got it @rational but wait to c the working
\[\int\limits \sec^2x/\sec^2x+1 (dx)\rightarrow \int\limits \sec^2xdx/2+\tan^2x\]
\[\cos^2x = 1 - \sin^2x\] \[\large \int\limits \frac{ 1 }{ 2-\sin^2x }dx \implies \int\limits \frac{ 1 }{ 2+\frac{ -1+\cos(2x) }{ 2 } }dx\] alternate method if you're interested, but I like the tanx sub better
\[\let tanx = t\]
