integral of (csc^2(x)-1)

\int (csc^{2} (x) - 1) d x

- cot (x) - x + C

Solution steps

\int csc^{2} (x) - 1 d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int csc^{2} (x) d x - \int 1 d x

\int csc^{2} (x) d x = - cot (x)

\int 1 d x = x

= - cot (x) - x

Add a constant to the solution

= - cot (x) - x + C
