Question
Evaulate:
integral 3x (sinx/cos^4x) dx
I think it's sec<sup>3</sup> x , but that from using a piece of software, so you'll have to verify that.
Using uppercase 's' for the integral sign we have
S 3sin(x)/cos<sup>4</sup>dx or
S cos<sup>-4</sup>(x)*3sin(x)dx
If you let u = cos(x) then du = -sin(x)dx
So the integral becomes
-3 S u<sup>-4</sup>du = -3 * (1/-3)u<sup>-3</sup> = 1/cos<sup>3</sup> x
sec<sup>3</sup> x
