    \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{d\theta }{\sin \theta {{\cos }^{3}}\theta }=}\]

    A)            \[\log \tan \theta +{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +c\]

    B)            \[\log \tan \theta -\frac{1}{2}{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +c\]

    C)            \[\log \tan \theta +\frac{1}{2}{{\tan }^{2}}\theta +c\]

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{d\theta }{\sin \theta {{\cos }^{3}}\theta }=\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{{{\sec }^{2}}\theta \,d\theta }{\sin \theta \cos \theta }=\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{{{\sec }^{2}}\theta (1+{{\tan }^{2}}\theta )}{\tan \theta }}}}\text{ }d\theta \]            Put \[t=\tan \theta \Rightarrow dt={{\sec }^{2}}\theta \,d\theta ,\] then it reduces to            \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{\frac{1+{{t}^{2}}}{t}\,dt=\int_{{}}^{{}}{\left( \frac{1}{t}+t \right)\,dt}}\]                          \[=\log t+\frac{{{t}^{2}}}{2}+c=\log \tan \theta +\frac{{{\tan }^{2}}\theta }{2}+c.\]
