Question
Evalute the following integrals:
$\int\frac{\cos\text{x}}{\cos(\text{x}-\text{a})}\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\frac{\cos\text{x}}{\cos(\text{x}-\text{a})}\text{dx}$
Putting x - a = t
⇒ x = a + t
⇒ dx = dt
$\therefore\text{I}=\int\frac{\cos(\text{a}+\text{t})\text{dt}}{\cos\text{t}}$
$=\frac{\cos\text{a}\cos\text{t}}{\cos\text{t}}-\frac{\sin\text{a}\sin\text{t}}{\cos\text{t}}\text{dt}$
$=\int\big(\cos\text{a}-\sin\text{a}\tan\text{t}\big)\text{dt}$
$=\text{t}\cos\text{a}-\sin\text{a ln}|\sec\text{t}|+\text{C}$
$=(\text{x}-\text{a})\cos\text{a}-\sin\text{a ln}|\sec(\text{a}-\text{a})|+\text{C}\ \big[\text{t}=\text{x}-\text{a}\big]$
