`int (sec^2x)/(tan^2x+5tanx+6) dx` Use substitution and partial fractions to find the indefinite integral

`int(sec^2(x))/(tan^2(x)+5tan(x)+6)dx`


Let's apply integral substitution:`u=tan(x)`


`=>du=sec^2(x)dx`


`=int1/(u^2+5u+6)du`


Now we have to write down integrand as sum of partial fraction function, but first we will have to factor the denominator,


`1/(u^2+5u+6)=1/(u^2+2u+3u+6)`


`=1/(u(u+2)+3(u+2))`


`=1/((u+2)(u+3))`


Now let's create partial fraction template,


`1/((u+2)(u+3))=A/(u+2)+B/(u+3)`  


Multiply the above equation by the denominator,


`=>1=A(u+3)+B(u+2)`


`1=Au+3A+Bu+2B`


`1=(A+B)u+3A+2B`


Equating the coefficients of the like terms,


`A+B=0`      -----------------(1)


`3A+2B=1`  -----------------(2)


From equation 1:`A=-B`


Substitute A in equation 2,


`3(-B)+2B=1`


`-3B+2B=1`


`=>B=-1`


Plug...

`int(sec^2(x))/(tan^2(x)+5tan(x)+6)dx`


Let's apply integral substitution:`u=tan(x)`


`=>du=sec^2(x)dx`


`=int1/(u^2+5u+6)du`


Now we have to write down integrand as sum of partial fraction function, but first we will have to factor the denominator,


`1/(u^2+5u+6)=1/(u^2+2u+3u+6)`


`=1/(u(u+2)+3(u+2))`


`=1/((u+2)(u+3))`


Now let's create partial fraction template,


`1/((u+2)(u+3))=A/(u+2)+B/(u+3)`  


Multiply the above equation by the denominator,


`=>1=A(u+3)+B(u+2)`


`1=Au+3A+Bu+2B`


`1=(A+B)u+3A+2B`


Equating the coefficients of the like terms,


`A+B=0`      -----------------(1)


`3A+2B=1`  -----------------(2)


From equation 1:`A=-B`


Substitute A in equation 2,


`3(-B)+2B=1`


`-3B+2B=1`


`=>B=-1`


Plug in the values in the partial fraction template,


`1/((u+2)(u+3))=1/(u+2)-1/(u+3)`


`int1/(u^2+5u+6)du=int(1/(u+2)-1/(u+3))du`


Apply the sum rule,


`=int1/(u+2)du-int1/(u+3)du`


Use the common integral:`int1/xdx=ln|x|`


`=ln|u+2|-ln|u+3|`


Substitute back `u=tan(x)`


and add a constant C to the solution,


`=ln|tan(x)+2|-ln|tan(x)+3|+C`
