$\int\sec\left(x\right)^4dx$
Learn how to solve trigonometric integrals problems step by step online. Solve the trigonometric integral int(1/(cos(x)^4))dx. Simplify \frac{1}{\cos\left(x\right)^4} into \sec\left(x\right)^4 by applying trigonometric identities. Simplify the integral \int\sec\left(x\right)^4dx applying the reduction formula, \displaystyle\int\sec(x)^{n}dx=\frac{\sin(x)\sec(x)^{n-1}}{n-1}+\frac{n-2}{n-1}\int\sec(x)^{n-2}dx. Simplify the expression inside the integral. The integral \frac{2}{3}\int\sec\left(x\right)^{2}dx results in: \frac{2}{3}\tan\left(x\right).
