integral of 1+cos^2(x)

integral

1 + cos^{2} (x)

\frac{3}{2} x + \frac{1}{4} sin (2 x) + C

Solution steps

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

\int 1 d x = x

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

= x + \frac{1}{2} (x + \frac{1}{2} sin (2 x))

Simplify

x + \frac{1}{2} (x + \frac{1}{2} sin (2 x)) : \frac{3}{2} x + \frac{1}{4} sin (2 x)

= \frac{3}{2} x + \frac{1}{4} sin (2 x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{3}{2} x + \frac{1}{4} sin (2 x) + C
