integral of 6tan(6x)

\int 6 tan (6 x) d x

- ln ∣ cos (6 x) ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int 6 tan (6 x) d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 6 \cdot \int tan (6 x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= 6 \cdot \int \frac{sin ( 6 x )}{cos ( 6 x )} d x

Apply u-substitution

= 6 \cdot \int - \frac{1}{6 u} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 6 (- \frac{1}{6} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u)

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= 6 (- \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ u ∣)

Substitute back

u = cos (6 x)

= 6 (- \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ cos (6 x) ∣)

Simplify

6 (- \frac{1}{6} ln ∣ cos (6 x) ∣) : - ln ∣ cos (6 x) ∣

= - ln ∣ cos (6 x) ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - ln ∣ cos (6 x) ∣ + C
