Evaluate the integrals in Exercises 33–52.
∫ eˣ sec³(eˣ) dx

검증된 단계별 안내

Recognize that the integral is of the form \(\int e^{x} \sec^{3}(e^{x}) \, dx\). Notice that the argument of the secant function is \(e^{x}\), which suggests a substitution involving \(e^{x}\).
Let \(u = e^{x}\). Then, compute the differential \(du = e^{x} dx\), which implies \(du = u \, dx\) or equivalently \(dx = \frac{du}{u}\).
Rewrite the integral in terms of \(u\): substitute \(e^{x} = u\) and \(dx = \frac{du}{u}\), so the integral becomes \(\int u \sec^{3}(u) \cdot \frac{du}{u} = \int \sec^{3}(u) \, du\).
Now, focus on evaluating \(\int \sec^{3}(u) \, du\). Recall that integrals of odd powers of secant can be handled by splitting \(\sec^{3}(u)\) as \(\sec(u) \cdot \sec^{2}(u)\) and using the identity \(\sec^{2}(u) = 1 + \tan^{2}(u)\).
Use the substitution \(t = \tan(u)\), so that \(dt = \sec^{2}(u) du\). Express the integral in terms of \(t\) and integrate accordingly, then substitute back to \(u\) and finally back to \(x\) to express the answer in terms of the original variable.
