Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\sec^6\text{x }\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$

Answer

$\int\sec^6\text{x }\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$\int\sec^6\text{x}.\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$
Let $\sec\text{x}=\text{t}$
$\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}=\text{dt}$
Now, $\int\sec^6\text{x}.\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$=\int\text{t}^6\text{dt}$
$=\frac{\text{t}^6}{6}+\text{C}$
$=\frac{\sec^6\text{x}}{6}+\text{C}$
