not sure how to do this integration question

wanton grotto

x = sec u i think

wary terrace
#

3secu^

oh yeah mb

slim hornet
#

hwo do you figure out to use that sub

wary terrace
#

or since it's further, will it be a hyperbolic substitution

they use x=3coshu

wary terrace
#

that works too

#

when x=5 isnt u = ln3

#

I get 10 - 9/2 ln3 in the end

slim hornet
#

yeah i saw that mistake

#

but isn't also cosh^2 +1 = sinh^2

#

so i didn't know where to go from there

wary terrace
#

the identity is cosh^2x - sinh^x = 1

slim hornet
#

ah right

#

thanks i was getting that mixed up
