![ok but (d/dx)[−(1/(cos^4 x sin x))]=−((−4cos^3 x sin^2 x +cos^5 x)/(cos^8 x sin^2 x))= =((cos^2 x −4sin^2 x)/(cos^5 x sin^2 x))=((1−5sin^2 x)/(cos^5 x sin^2 x))](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q112112.png)

![you have not finished your solution sinh^(−1) (tanx)−sec^3 xtanx−cosecx−[sinh^(−1) (tanx)+secxtanx]= =−sec^3 x tan x −cosec x −sec x tan x= =−((sin x)/(cos^4 x))−(1/(sin x))−((sin x)/(cos^2 x))=−((sin^2 x +cos^4 x +cos^2 x sin^2 x)/(cos^4 x sin x))= =−(1/(cos^4 x sin x)) so your path leads to the same result but it′s an unnecessary detour compared to the solution of “Her Majesty”](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q112118.png)

What made you such a vitriolic young man?

...she gave the right answer, you stated it was wrong but your answer is the same as hers. Does this mean, your answer is wrong, too? You assume she's copied her answer from Google just because you don't like (or you didn't know) the method she used?!

![In my opinion the art of mathematics is to find the solution at least possible cost. ∫((1−5sin^2 x)/(cos^5 x sin^2 x))dx can also be solved by using Weierstrass′ Substitution but it′s also lengthy: i∫((1−5sin^2 x)/(cos^5 x sin^2 x))dx= [t=tan (x/2) → dx=((2dt)/(t^2 +1))] =−(1/2)∫(((t^2 +1)^4 (t^2 −4t−1)(t^2 +4t−1))/(t^2 (t−1)^5 (t+1)^5 ))dt= =∫((4/((t−1)^5 ))+(6/((t−1)^4 ))+(6/((t−1)^3 ))+(2/((t−1)^2 ))−(4/((t+1)^5 ))+(6/((t+1)^4 ))−(6/((t+1)^3 ))+(2/((t+1)^2 ))+(1/(2t^2 ))−(1/2))dt= =−(1/((t−1)^4 ))−(2/((t−1)^3 ))−(3/((t−1)^2 ))−(2/(t−1))+(1/((t+1)^4 ))−(2/((t+1)^3 ))+(3/((t+1)^2 ))−(2/(t+1))−(1/(2t))−(t/2)= =−(((t^2 +1)^5 )/(2t(t−1)^4 (t+1)^4 ))= [t=(s/c); s=sin (x/2) ∧ c=cos (x/2)] =−(((s^2 +c^2 )^5 )/(2cs(s^2 −c^2 )^4 ))=−(1/(sin x cos^4 x))+C or, much shorter: ∫((1−5sin^2 x)/(cos^5 x sin^2 x))dx= [t=sin x → dx=(dt/(cos x))] =∫((1−5t^2 )/(t^2 (1−t^2 )^3 ))dt= =∫((1/(2(t−1)^3 ))−(1/(2(t−1)^2 ))−(1/(2(t+1)^3 ))−(1/(2(t+1)^2 ))+(1/t^2 ))dt= =−(1/(4(t−1)^2 ))+(1/(2(t−1)))+(1/(4(t+1)^2 ))+(1/(2(t+1)))−(1/t)= =−(1/(t(t^2 −1)^2 ))=−(1/(sin x cos^4 x))+C btw. also I have not seen the possibility to use Integration by Parts](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q112304.png)
