Solution
Let $I=\int \sec ^4 \tan ^4 x d x$
Put $\tan \mathrm{x}=\mathrm{t} \Rightarrow \sec ^2 \mathrm{x} d \mathrm{x}=\mathrm{dt}$
$\begin{aligned}
& \therefore \mathrm{I}=\int \sec ^2 \mathrm{x}\left(\sec ^2 \mathrm{x}\right)\left(\tan ^4 \mathrm{x}\right) \mathrm{dx} \\
& =\int\left(1+\mathrm{t}^2\right)(\mathrm{t})^4 \mathrm{dt}=\int\left(\mathrm{t}^4+\mathrm{t}^6\right) \mathrm{dt}=\frac{\mathrm{t}^5}{5}+\frac{\mathrm{t}^7}{7}+\mathrm{c}=\frac{\tan ^5 \mathrm{x}}{5}+\frac{\tan ^7 \mathrm{x}}{7}+\mathrm{c}
\end{aligned}$
