integral of (cos(x))/(1-sin^2(x))

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

ln ∣ tan (x) + sec (x) ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int sec (x) d x

Use the common integral:

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

= ln ∣ tan (x) + sec (x) ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= ln ∣ tan (x) + sec (x) ∣ + C
