    \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\sec x{{\tan }^{3}}x\ dx=}\]

    A)            \[\frac{1}{3}{{\sec }^{3}}x-\sec x+c\]

    B)            \[{{\sec }^{3}}x-\sec x+c\]

    C)            \[\frac{1}{3}{{\sec }^{3}}x+\sec x+c\]

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\sec x{{\tan }^{3}}x\ dx=\int_{{}}^{{}}{\sec x({{\sec }^{2}}x-1)\tan x\ dx}}\]            \[=\int_{{}}^{{}}{\sec x\tan x{{\sec }^{2}}x\ dx}-\int_{{}}^{{}}{\sec x\tan x\ dx}\]            \[=\frac{{{\sec }^{3}}x}{3}-\sec x+c\],      (Putting \[\sec x=t\] in first part).
