this is integral 2 (tan-1x)2

let taninverse x=t
this implies tan t=x
this implies sec2t dt=dx
i.e (1+tan2t)dt=dx

therefore given integral becomes 2t2(1+tan2t)dt
=2t2dt+2t2tan2t dt
2t2tan2dt can be evaluated by using integration by parts.

i think this solves the major part.

and dude dont forget to change the limits accordingly.

dude please solve it completely for me.

Dr.House ·

ok solving it completely

2t2dt = 2t3/3

∫ 2t2tan2tdt=2t2(∫ (sec2t -1))+∫4t(∫(sec2t -1)) dt

= 2t2tant-2t3/3 +4t tant -4t2

now u give th e limits.

bye the way anyone check if this can be solved by basic formulae of definite integrals.

you need to integrate 4t tant- 4t2 also.

ya sorry forgot that. anyways again use integration by parts for 4t tant

did u get my solution or ot?

by the ways watever i am posting are they coreect or wrong?

4t log|sect| - ∫4log|sect| how to move from here?
