Question
Consider the following function. x6 1 + x2 dx (a) Determine an appropriate trigonometric substitution. Use x = sin(θ), where − π 2 ≤ θ ≤ π 2 , since the integrand contains the expression 1 + x2 . Use x = tan(θ), where − π 2 < θ < π 2 , since the integrand contains the expression 1 + x2 . Use x = sec(θ), where 0 ≤ θ < π 2 or π ≤ θ < 3π 2 , since the integrand contains the expression 1 + x2 . (b) Apply the substitution to transform the integral into a trigonometric integral. Do not evaluate the integral. x6 1 + x2 dx = dθ

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In the first part, we are given the function:
Suppose we make x = tan θ
Then dx = sec² θ.dθ
Since; sec² θ – tan² θ = 1
sec² θ = 1+ tan² θ
∴
Thus; In the first part, Use x = tan θ, where
, since the integrand comprise the expression 
From the second part by using substitution method;
