Answer

$$\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \tan x \sec ^{2} x d x =\frac{1}{2}$$

Work Step by Step

Given : \[ \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \sec ^{2} x \tan x d x \] Let us consider $\Longrightarrow d u=\tan x \sec x d x \quad$ For $u=1, x=0$, $x=\frac{\pi}{4}, \sqrt{2}=u$ Putting these values in the given integral, we have \[ \begin{aligned} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \tan x \sec ^{2} x d x &=\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} [\tan x \sec x d x]\sec x \\ &=\int_{1}^{\sqrt{2}} u d u \\ &=\left[\frac{u^{2}}{2}\right]_{1}^{\sqrt{2}} \\ &=\left[-\frac{1}{2}+1\right] \\ &=\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned} \] Let us consider \[ \tan=u \] $\Longrightarrow d u=\sec ^{2} x d x \quad$ For $u=0, x=0$, $x=\frac{\pi}{4}, u=1$ \[ \begin{aligned} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \tan x \sec ^{2} x d x &=\int_{0}^{1} u d u \\ &=\left[\frac{u^{2}}{2}\right]_{0}^{1} \\ &=\left[-0+\frac{1}{2} \right] \\ &=\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned} \]
