integral of xsec(x^2)

\int x sec (x^{2}) d x

\frac{1}{2} ln tan (x^{2}) + sec (x^{2}) + C

Solution steps

\int x sec (x^{2}) d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{sec ( u )}{2} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int sec (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int sec (u) d u = ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

= \frac{1}{2} ln ∣ tan (u) + sec (u) ∣

Substitute back

u = x^{2}

= \frac{1}{2} ln tan (x^{2}) + sec (x^{2})

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} ln tan (x^{2}) + sec (x^{2}) + C
