if the integral 5tanxtanx2dx=x+alog |sinx2cosx|+k, then a is equal to 

Moderate
Solution

Given integral 5tanxtanx2dx

To find The value of a ', if 5tanxtanx2dx 

=x+alog|sinx2cosx|+k ---i

Now, let us assume that I=5tanxtanx2dx

On multiplying by cos x in numerator and
denominator, we get 

I=5sinxsinx2cosxdx

This special integration requires special substitution
of type

Nr=ADr+BdDrdx,A and B are constant.

 Let 5sinx=A(sinx2cosx)+B(cosx+2sinx)

0cosx+5sinx=(A+2B)sinx+(B2A)cosx

A+2B=5 and B2A=0

On solving the above two equations in A and B, we get

A=1 and  B=2 

5sinx=(sinx2cosx)+2(cosx+2sinx)  I=5sinxsinx2cosxdx=(sinx2cosx)+2(cosx+2sinx)(sinx2cosx)dx=sinx2cosxsinx2cosxdx+2(cosx+2sinx)(sinx2cosx)dx=1dx+2d(sinx2cosx)(sinx2cosx)

=x+2log|(sinx2cosx)|+k   ----ii

where, k is the constant of integration.
Now, by comparing the value of I in Eqs. (i) and (ii),

we get .
