Step 1
We have to evaluate the integral:
1sinxcosxdx
We will use following special integration formula:
secxdx=log|secx+tanx|+c
tanxdx=log|secx|+c
Step 2
So simplifying further,
1sinxcosxdx=(1cosxsinxcosx)dx
=(secxtanx)dx
=secxdxtanxdx
=log|secx+tanx|log|secx|+c
=log(|secx+tanxsecx|)+c
=log(|secxsecx+tanxsecx|)+c
=log(|1+cosx|)+c
Hence, value of integral is log(|1+cosx|).

1cos(x)dx
=sec(x)dx
=ln(tan(x)+sec(x))

=ln(u)
=ln(cos(x))
1cos(x)dxsin(x)cos(x)dx
=ln(tan(x)+sec(x))+ln(cos(x))
Answer:
=ln(|tan(x)+sec(x)|)+ln(|cos(x)|)+C
