integral of ((cos(2x)-1))/(cos(2x)+1)

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

- tan (x) + x + C

Solution steps

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

\frac{cos ( 2 x ) - 1}{cos ( 2 x ) + 1} = \frac{cos ( 2 x ) - 1 - 2 cos ^{2} ( x )}{2 cos ^{2} ( x )} + 1

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

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

\int 1 d x = x

= - tan (x) + x

Add a constant to the solution

= - tan (x) + x + C
