Evaluate the following integrals: ^4x dx - Vidyadip

Question

Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\sec^4\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$

✓

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\sec^4\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}\ ....(1)$
Let $\tan\text{x}=\text{t}$ then,
$\Rightarrow\text{d}(\tan\text{x})=\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow\sec^2\text{x}\text{ dx}=\text{dt}$
$\Rightarrow\text{dx}=\frac{\text{dt}}{\sec^2\text{x}}$
Putting $\tan\text{x}=\text{t}$ and $\text{dx}=\frac{\text{dt}}{\sec^2\text{x}}$ in equation (1), we get,
$\text{I}=\int\sec^4\text{x}\tan\text{x}\frac{\text{dt}}{\sec^2\text{x}}$
$=\int\sec^2\text{x}\text{ t dt}$
$=\int\big(1+\tan^2\text{x}\big)\text{t dt}$
$=\int\big(1+\text{t}^2\big)\text{t dt}$
$=\int\big(\text{t}+\text{t}^3\big)\text{dt}$
$=\frac{\text{t}^2}{2}+\frac{\text{t}^4}{4}+\text{C}$
$=\frac{\tan^2\text{x}}{2}+\frac{\tan^4\text{x}}{4}+\text{C}$
$\text{I}=\frac{1}{2}\tan^2\text{x}+\frac{1}{4}\tan^4\text{x}+\text{C}$

A factory uses three different resources for the manufacture of two different products, 20 units of the resources A, 12 units of B and 16 units of C being available. 1 unit of the first product requires 2, 2 and 4 units of the respective resources and 1 unit of the second product requires 4, 2 and 0 units of respective resources. It is known that the first product gives a profit of 2 monetary units per unit and the second 3. Formulate the linear programming problem. How many units of each product should be manufactured for maximizing the profit? Solve it graphically.
