Homework Statement


\int \frac{\sin x+\cos x}{\sec x+ \tan x}dx

Homework Equations



\sin x = \frac{1}{\sec x}
\cos x = \frac{\sin x}{\tan x}


The Attempt at a Solution


i separate and try to use identities but i got nothign

1/(secx^2+secx tan x)+sin x/tanx^2+sec x :confused:

write everything in terms of sin x and cos x only, then integrate with change of variable.
 
One of your identities is incorrect: sec(x)=1/cos(x).

As has been said above, you should first look to express everything in terms of sines and cosines. See if this gives you a hint as to how to proceed.
 
please tell more

this is the shape that i got
don't know how to complete

–integral sin²x-sin2x-1/2(1+sinx)
 
-(\int \sin^2 x dx - \int \sin 2x dx - 1/2\int 1+\sin x)

Write sin^2 x as (1/2) (1-cos2x).

for sin 2x, make a substitution u=2x, then remember the integral of sin u is -cos u.

For the 3rd one, if you can't do it, why are you doing this question?
 
you can also try weierstrass substitution
i.e t = tan x/2
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
