Application of Integrals

Question:

The value of integral

$I=∫\frac{1-sinx}{cos^2x}dx$ is :

Options:

tan x - sec x + c, where c is a constant

sec x - tan x + c, where c is a constant

sec x  tan x + c, where c is a constant

tan x + sec x + c, where c is a constant

Correct Answer:

tan x - sec x + c, where c is a constant

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → $\tan x - \sec x + c$, where c is a constant

$I=∫\frac{1-\sin x}{\cos^2x}dx$

$=∫\frac{1}{\cos^2x}-\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}×\frac{1}{\cos x}dx$

$=∫\sec^2x-\sec x\tan xdx$

$=\tan x-\sec x+c$
