The value of $\int \frac{\sec x \cdot \tan x}{9-16 \tan ^2 x} \mathrm{~d} x$ is equal to
- $\frac{1}{24} \log \left(\frac{5+4 \sec x}{5-4 \sec x}\right)+\mathrm{c}$, (where c is a constant of integration)
- $\frac{1}{40} \log \left(\frac{5+4 \sec x}{5-4 \sec x}\right)+\mathrm{c}$, (where c is a constant of integration)
- $\frac{1}{24} \log \left(\frac{5-4 \sec x}{5+4 \sec x}\right)+\mathrm{c}$, (where c is a constant of integration)
- $\frac{1}{40} \log \left(\frac{5-4 \sec x}{5+4 \sec x}\right)+\mathrm{c}$, (where c is a constant of integration)
Solution
Put $\sec x=\mathrm{t} \Rightarrow \sec x \tan x \mathrm{~d} x=\mathrm{dt}$ $\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \mathrm{I} & =\int \frac{\mathrm{dt}}{5^2-(4 \mathrm{t})^2} \\ & =\frac{1}{2(5)} \cdot \frac{1}{4} \log \left|\frac{5+4 \mathrm{t}}{5-4 t}\right| \\ & =\frac{1}{40} \log \left|\frac{5+4 \sec x}{5-4 \sec x}\right|+\mathrm{c} \end{aligned}$
