NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 7 Integrals · Exercise 7.3 Question 9

Evaluate \(\int \frac{\cos{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)} + 1}\, dx\).

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(x - \tan{\left(\frac{x}{2} \right)}\) + C.
  1. Work on each open interval where the original integrand is real and defined.
  2. Rewrite as 1−1/(1+cos x)=1−sec²(x/2)/2.
  3. An antiderivative is F(x)=\(x - \tan{\left(\frac{x}{2} \right)}\).
  4. Differentiate this expression to check that F′(x)=\(\frac{\cos{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)} + 1}\). Add an arbitrary constant C on each domain component.
