integral of (sin(8x))/(1+cos^2(8x))

\int \frac{sin ( 8 x )}{1 + cos ^{2} ( 8 x )} d x

\frac{1}{8} arctan (tan^{2} (4 x)) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{sin ( 8 x )}{1 + cos ^{2} ( 8 x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{sin ( u )}{8 ( 1 + cos ^{2} ( u ) )} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot \int \frac{sin ( u )}{1 + cos ^{2} ( u )} d u

Rewrite using trig identities

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot \int \frac{sin ( u )}{- sin ^{2} ( u ) + 2} d u

Apply u-substitution

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot \int \frac{2 v}{v ^{4} + 1} d v

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot 2 \cdot \int \frac{v}{v ^{4} + 1} d v

Apply u-substitution

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{2 ( w ^{2} + 1 )} d w

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{w ^{2} + 1} d w

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{w ^{2} + 1} d w = arctan (w)

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} arctan (w)

Substitute back

= \frac{1}{8} \cdot 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} arctan (tan^{2} (\frac{8 x}{2}))

Simplify

\frac{1}{8} \cdot 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} arctan (tan^{2} (\frac{8 x}{2})) : \frac{1}{8} arctan (tan^{2} (4 x))

= \frac{1}{8} arctan (tan^{2} (4 x))

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{8} arctan (tan^{2} (4 x)) + C
