This is the story where the problem comes from.
∫ sec ( x ) − 1 1 dx = ∫ 1 − cos ( x ) cos ( x ) dx = ∫ ( − 1 + 1 − cos ( x ) 1 ) dx = − x + ∫ 1 − cos ( x ) 1 dx = − x + ∫ sin 2 ( x ) 1 + cos ( x ) dx = − x + ∫ csc 2 ( x ) dx + ∫ cot ( x ) csc ( x ) dx = − x − cot ( x ) − csc ( x ) + C
Meanwhile, the answer and solution of this problem to other sites is different. They use tangent-half angle substitution and double angle formula and obtaining − x − cot ( 2 x ) + C ⋅ Since the 2 answers came from the same integrand, the answers must be equivalent and hence, cot ( x ) + csc ( x ) = cot ( 2 x ) + C ⋅ Putting any value for x , you will obtain C = 0 ⟹ cot ( x ) + csc ( x ) = cot ( 2 x ) , and by induction, cot ( 2 x ) + csc ( 2 x ) = cot ( x ) ⟹ − cot ( 2 x ) − csc ( 2 x ) + cot ( x ) = 0 ⟹ x = 4 5 ∑ 8 9 cot ( x ) − x = 4 6 ∑ 8 9 ( cot ( 2 x ) + csc ( 2 x ) ) = cot ( 4 5 ) = 1 ⋅
