Can someone please tell me how to integrate tan 2x dx?
The thread you cited contains the entire answer. So it's hard to guess, which part of it you didn't understand. That's why we have a homework forum and insist on using the template, because otherwise, people have to guess what you might have meant.

Thread closed.
