12-6sqrt2+(3^12-3^(6sqrt2))/ln31262+312362ln3

Explanation:

We will take this step-by-step. The first substitution we will use is:

u=6xu=6x
du=6color(white).dxdu=6.dx

The transformation of bounds becomes:

x=pi/18" "=>" "u=6x=6(pi/18)=pi/3x=π18 u=6x=6(π18)=π3

x=pi/24" "=>" "u=6x=6(pi/24)=pi/4x=π24 u=6x=6(π24)=π4

So:

36int_(pi//24)^(pi//18)(1+3^(6sec(6x)))(sec(6x)tan(6x))dx36π/18π/24(1+36sec(6x))(sec(6x)tan(6x))dx

=6int_(pi//24)^(pi//18)(1+3^(6sec(6x)))(sec(6x)tan(6x))(6color(white).dx)=6π/18π/24(1+36sec(6x))(sec(6x)tan(6x))(6.dx)

=6int_(pi//4)^(pi//3)(1+3^(6sec(u)))(sec(u)tan(u))du=6π/3π/4(1+36sec(u))(sec(u)tan(u))du

Now, let:

v=6sec(u)v=6sec(u)
dv=6sec(u)tan(u)dudv=6sec(u)tan(u)du

The bounds become:

u=pi/3" "=>" "v=6sec(u)=6/cos(pi/3)=6/(1/2)=12u=π3 v=6sec(u)=6cos(π3)=612=12

u=pi/4" "=>" "v=sec(u)=6/cos(pi/4)=6/(1/sqrt2)=6sqrt2u=π4 v=sec(u)=6cos(π4)=612=62

Then the integral becomes:

=int_(pi//4)^(pi//3)(1+3^(6sec(u)))(6sec(u)tan(u)du)=π/3π/4(1+36sec(u))(6sec(u)tan(u)du)

=int_(6sqrt2)^12(1+3^v)dv=1262(1+3v)dv

Splitting up the integral:

=int_(6sqrt2)^12dv+int_(6sqrt2)^12 3^vdv=1262dv+12623vdv

We can evaluate the first integral easily:

=v| _ (6sqrt2)^12 + int _(6sqrt2)^12 3^vdv=v1262+12623vdv

=12-6sqrt2 + int _(6sqrt2)^12 3^vdv=1262+12623vdv

For the remaining integral, note that 3=e^ln33=eln3 so 3^v=(e^ln3)^v=e^(vln3)3v=(eln3)v=evln3.

=12-6sqrt2+int_(6sqrt2)^12e^(vln3)dv=1262+1262evln3dv

Performing another substitution:

w=vln3w=vln3
dw=ln3color(white).dvdw=ln3.dv

The bounds:

v=12" "=>" "w=vln3=12ln3v=12 w=vln3=12ln3

v=6sqrt2" "=>" "w=vln3=6sqrt2(ln3)v=62 w=vln3=62(ln3)

Then:

=12-6sqrt2+1/ln3int_(6sqrt2)^12e^(vln3)(ln3color(white).dv)=1262+1ln31262evln3(ln3.dv)

=12-6sqrt2+1/ln3int_(6sqrt2(ln3))^(12ln3)e^wdw=1262+1ln312ln362(ln3)ewdw

The integral of e^wew is itself:

=12-6sqrt2+1/ln3(e^w)|_(6sqrt2(ln3))^(12ln3)=1262+1ln3(ew)12ln362(ln3)

=12-6sqrt2+1/ln3e^(12ln3)-1/ln3e^(6sqrt2(ln3))=1262+1ln3e12ln31ln3e62(ln3)

=12-6sqrt2+1/ln3(e^ln3)^12-1/ln3(e^ln3)^(6sqrt2)=1262+1ln3(eln3)121ln3(eln3)62

=12-6sqrt2+(3^12-3^(6sqrt2))/ln3=1262+312362ln3
