integral from 0 to pi/4 of 4sec(θ)tan(θ)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} 4 sec (θ) tan (θ) d θ

4 (2 - 1)

Decimal

1.65685 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} 4 sec (θ) tan (θ) d θ

Take the constant out:

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

= 4 \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} sec (θ) tan (θ) d θ

Apply u-substitution

= 4 \cdot \int_{1}^{2} 1 d u

Integral of a constant:

\int a d x = a x

= 4 [1 \cdot u]_{1}^{2}

Simplify

= 4 [u]_{1}^{2}

Compute the boundaries:

2 - 1

= 4 (2 - 1)
