Integrating secant squared

Integrate secant squared, including linear angles.

  • With angles in radians, .
  • for .
  • Use the rule only on intervals where the function is defined.

Example 1

Integrate with respect to . Angles are in radians; work where the function is defined.

Find the inner derivative.Secant squared integrates to tangent. Divide by the inner derivative.

Example 2

Integrate with respect to . Angles are in radians; work where the function is defined.

Find the inner derivative.Secant squared integrates to tangent. Divide by the inner derivative.
