    . \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{{{\tan }^{4}}x\ dx=}\]

    A)            \[{{\tan }^{3}}x-\tan x+x+c\]

    B)            \[\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{3}}x-\tan x+x+c\]

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

    D)            \[\frac{1}{3}{{\tan }^{3}}x+\tan x+2x+c\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       \[\int_{{}}^{{}}{{{\tan }^{4}}x\,dx}=\int_{{}}^{{}}{{{\tan }^{2}}x({{\sec }^{2}}x-1)\,dx}\]            \[=\int_{{}}^{{}}{{{\tan }^{2}}x{{\sec }^{2}}x\,dx}-\int_{{}}^{{}}{{{\tan }^{2}}x\,dx}=\frac{{{\tan }^{3}}x}{3}-\tan x+x+c\].
