integrate question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\cosh 2x = \frac{ 1= \tanh^2x }{ 1-\tanh^2x }\]\[t=tanhx\] integrate\[\int\limits sech2x dx\]

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

I assume I am not welcome here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[sech 2x = \frac{ 1 }{ \cosh 2x }\]\[=\frac{ 1 }{ \frac{ 1 +\tanh^2x }{ 1-\tanh^2x }}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@inkyvoyd why are you saying that?

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

because last time I used wolfram alpha show steps :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still it doesnt explained why are you saying that?

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

because I spoil your fun :)

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

also this is a calculus 2 question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ignore the question mark at the end

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well in my place, calculus is calculus, doesnt matter 1 or 2, so im not used to the label

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyway you going to help me figure it out??

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

uhh lemme go ask wolfram alpha lol

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

mind you it entirely ignores your hint

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

humm i need to used the hint, i prefer to used definition actually

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ayeshaafzal221 please help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after subs it became \[\frac{ 1 }{ \frac{ 1+t^2 }{ 1-t^2 } }\] \[= \frac{ 1-t^2 }{ 1+t^2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats right what is it that ur not understanding?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know what is the next step

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

have you worked out dt yet? dt = d(tanh x) .... then use \( sech ^{2} x = 1 - \tanh^{2} x \) it should come out easy after that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@IrishBoy123 i dont know how to work the dt can you show the first step?

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

from wiki \( \frac{d}{dx}\tanh x = 1 - \tanh^2 x = \operatorname{sech}^2 x = 1/\cosh^2 x \,\) so t = tanh x dt = ?? PS i have not verified that idntity you are using, so i assume that that's good... PPS i got an annoying email yesterday from the Stasi so i am having to be less helpful than i would like :-))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is okay, i think i get the idea, thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

time at hand, let's get at work now. \[\int\limits_{}^{}sech2xdx=\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{ 1-\tan^2hx }{1+\tan ^2hx }dx\\ now\ use \ \sec^2hx=1-\tan^2hx\ and \ put\ tanhx=t\\ \implies\ \sec^2hxdx=dt\\ \therefore\ \int\limits_{}^{}sech2xdx=\ \int\limits_{}^{} \frac{ dt }{ 1+t^2 }\\= \tan^{-1} t +K\\=\tan^{-1} tanhx +K\]

OpenStudy (mathmale):

@inkyvoyd: would you please stay on topic (which does not involve your feeling unwelcome). Thanks.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

@mathmale , would you please stay on topic by deleting things off topic, and sending me a message instead of further derailing the thread? oh wait sorry you're the mod here yah I"ll stay on topic oops

OpenStudy (mathmale):

That'd be highly advisable. ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@eninone thank you for help me to confirm my work, and thanks to those who help :)
