#f(x)=tan(x)-ln|tan(x/2)|+ln|-sqrt2-1|-1#

We got: #f(x)=intsec^2x-cscx \ dx#

#=intsec^2x \ dx-intcscx \ dx#

#=tan(x)-ln|tan(x/2)|+C#

Also, we know that #f((5pi)/4)=0#, and we have to find #C#.

#f((5pi)/4)=0#

#=>tan((5pi)/4)-ln|tan(((5pi)/4)/2)|+C=0#

#=>tan((5pi)/4)-ln|tan((5pi)/8)|+C=0#

#=>1-ln|-sqrt2-1|+C=0#

#:.C=ln|-sqrt2-1|-1#

#:.f(x)=tan(x)-ln|tan(x/2)|+ln|-sqrt2-1|-1#
