85. Another form of ∫ sec x dx
a. Verify the identity:
sec x = cos x / (1 - sin² x)
b. Use the identity in part (a) to verify that:
∫ sec x dx = (1/2) ln |(1 + sin x)/(1 - sin x)| + C

Step 1: Start by verifying the identity given in part (a): \( \sec x = \frac{\cos x}{1 - \sin^2 x} \). Recall the Pythagorean identity \( \sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1 \), and use it to rewrite the denominator \( 1 - \sin^2 x \) as \( \cos^2 x \).
Step 2: Substitute \( 1 - \sin^2 x = \cos^2 x \) into the right-hand side of the identity to get \( \frac{\cos x}{\cos^2 x} = \frac{1}{\cos x} \), which is exactly \( \sec x \). This completes the verification of the identity in part (a).
Step 3: For part (b), start with the integral \( \int \sec x \, dx \) and use the identity from part (a) to rewrite \( \sec x \) as \( \frac{\cos x}{1 - \sin^2 x} \). This transforms the integral into \( \int \frac{\cos x}{1 - \sin^2 x} \, dx \).
Step 4: Use the substitution \( u = \sin x \), which implies \( du = \cos x \, dx \). This substitution simplifies the integral to \( \int \frac{1}{1 - u^2} \, du \).
Step 5: Recognize that \( \frac{1}{1 - u^2} \) can be decomposed using partial fractions into \( \frac{1}{(1 - u)(1 + u)} \). Integrate the resulting expression to obtain \( \frac{1}{2} \ln \left| \frac{1 + u}{1 - u} \right| + C \). Finally, substitute back \( u = \sin x \) to complete the verification.
