Math Problem Statement

solve the integral: sinxlog(tanx)

Solution

To solve the integral sin(x)log(tan(x))dx\int \sin(x) \log(\tan(x)) \, dx, we can apply integration by parts.

We will first need to use the formula for integration by parts:

udv=uvvdu\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du

Step 1: Choose uu and dvdv

We can set:

u=log(tan(x)),dv=sin(x)dxu = \log(\tan(x)), \quad dv = \sin(x) \, dx

Now, differentiate uu and integrate dvdv:

du=ddxlog(tan(x))=1tan(x)sec2(x)dx=sec2(x)tan(x)dxdu = \frac{d}{dx} \log(\tan(x)) = \frac{1}{\tan(x)} \cdot \sec^2(x) \, dx = \frac{\sec^2(x)}{\tan(x)} \, dx v=sin(x)dx=cos(x)v = \int \sin(x) \, dx = -\cos(x)

Step 2: Apply the Integration by Parts Formula

Now, applying the formula:

sin(x)log(tan(x))dx=cos(x)log(tan(x))(cos(x))sec2(x)tan(x)dx\int \sin(x) \log(\tan(x)) \, dx = -\cos(x) \log(\tan(x)) - \int \left(-\cos(x)\right) \cdot \frac{\sec^2(x)}{\tan(x)} \, dx

This simplifies to:

sin(x)log(tan(x))dx=cos(x)log(tan(x))+cos(x)sec2(x)tan(x)dx\int \sin(x) \log(\tan(x)) \, dx = -\cos(x) \log(\tan(x)) + \int \frac{\cos(x) \sec^2(x)}{\tan(x)} \, dx

Step 3: Simplify the Remaining Integral

Now, simplify the second integral:

cos(x)sec2(x)tan(x)=1tan(x)sec(x)\frac{\cos(x) \sec^2(x)}{\tan(x)} = \frac{1}{\tan(x)} \cdot \sec(x)

Thus, the remaining integral becomes:

1tan(x)sec(x)dx\int \frac{1}{\tan(x)} \cdot \sec(x) \, dx

We can use a substitution method here. Let u=tan(x)u = \tan(x), then du=sec2(x)dxdu = \sec^2(x) \, dx. The integral becomes:

1udu=logu=logtan(x)\int \frac{1}{u} \, du = \log|u| = \log|\tan(x)|

Step 4: Final Answer

Substituting back into our original equation, we get:

sin(x)log(tan(x))dx=cos(x)log(tan(x))+logtan(x)+C\int \sin(x) \log(\tan(x)) \, dx = -\cos(x) \log(\tan(x)) + \log|\tan(x)| + C

where CC is the constant of integration.

Final Answer:

cos(x)log(tan(x))+logtan(x)+C\boxed{-\cos(x) \log(\tan(x)) + \log|\tan(x)| + C}
