Math Problem Statement
∫sech (ln(x)) dx
Solution
To solve the integral , we can use a substitution method.
Let . Then, or equivalently .
Now, we rewrite the integral in terms of :
We recognize that , so the integral becomes:
Simplify the integrand:
Notice that can be integrated directly as it matches the derivative of the arctangent function:
This integral can be recognized as:
Now, substituting back :
Thus, the solution to the integral is:
