The integral is .
(a)
\ is positive and even.
If the power of a secant function is positive and even, save a secant squared factor and convert the remaining factors to tangents.Then expand and integrate.
\(b)
\ is positive and odd.
If the power of a tangent function is positive and odd, save a secant tangent factor and convert the remaining factors to secants.Then expand and integrate.
\(c)
\ is positive and even and there are no secant factors.
If there are no secant factors and the power of a tangent function is positive and even, convert a tangent factor to a secant squared factor,then expand and repeat if necessary.
\(d)
\ is positive and odd and there are no tangent factors.
If the integral is of the form , where
is odd and positive, use integration by parts.
