What's the doubt in such simple question.I can assure you that the answer in the book is wrong.


You can simply observe that d(tanx)=sec2xdx and so,the answer is (tan2x)/2.I don't have any doubt in this answer.

Ya..Now I understand.I forgot to write the constant of integration in the answer.It can have both the answers and in fact any no. of answers bcoz an indefinite integral has any no. of answers depending on the constant c.


Here,The answer is tan2x/2+c=tan2x+1/2+c-1/2=sec2x/2+c' where c'=c-1/2.


So,both the answers are correct.Sorry for not telling this earlier.It didn't strike to my mind that time.
