#= sec^2 x \ sqrt(3tan x + sqrt(tan x)) #

FTC, Pt 1: if #F(u)= int _a^u \ f(t)\ dt #, then #F'(u)=f(u) #.

With u(x) = tan x, and #F = F(u(x))#, it follows from the chain rule that:

#(dF)/(dx) = F'(u) \ u'(x)#

So:

#d/(dx) ( int_5^(tan(x)) sqrt(3t+ sqrt(t)) \ \ dt) #

#= sqrt(3tan x + sqrt(tan x)) \ d/(dx) (tan x ) #

#= sec^2 x \ sqrt(3tan x + sqrt(tan x)) #
