Introduction to the integral of csc^2x
In calculus, the integral is a fundamental concept that assigns numbers to functions to define displacement, area, volume, and all those functions that contain a combination of tiny elements. It is categorized into two parts, definite integral and indefinite integral. The process of integration calculates the integrals. This process is defined as finding an antiderivative of a function.

Integral of csc x squared by using integration by parts
The derivative of a function calculates the rate of change, and integration is the process of finding the antiderivative of a function. The integration by parts is a method of solving the integral of two functions combined together. Let’s discuss calculating the integral of csc squared x by using the integration by parts calculator.
Proof of integral of csc^2x by using integration by parts
To integrate the function csc^2x using integration by parts, we can use the following formula:
$∫udv = uv − ∫ v du$
Let's start by choosing our u and dv terms. In this case, we can choose:
$u = \csc^2x$
$dv = dx$
Next, we need to find the derivatives of u and the antiderivative of dv.
Taking the derivative of u, we get:
$\frac{du}{dx} = -2\cot x \csc^2x$
Taking the antiderivative of dv, we get:
$v = x$
Now we can use the integration by parts formula:
$∫\csc^2x dx = ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du$
Substituting in our chosen values for u, v, du/dx, and v, we get:
$∫ csc^2x dx = \csc^2x(x) - ∫ x(-2\cot x \csc^2x) dx$
Simplifying the expression, we get:
$∫\csc^2x dx = x \csc^2x + 2∫\cot x dx$
Since the integral of cot x is,
$∫\cot x dx = \ln|\sin x|$
Substituting it into our original equation, we get:
$∫\csc^2x dx = x \csc^2x + 2 \ln|\sin x| + C$
Therefore, the integral of csc^2 by integration by parts is x csc^2x + 2 ln|sinx| + C.
Integration of csc^2x by using substitution method
The substitution method involves many trigonometric formulas. We can use these formulas to verify the integrals of different trigonometric functions such as sine, cosine, tangent, etc. Let’s understand how to prove the integral of csc squared by using the substitution method.
Proof of Integral of csc^2x by using substitution method
To proof the antiderivative of csc^2x by using substitution method finder, suppose that:
$I = ∫\csc^2x dx =∫\frac{1}{\sin^2x}dx$
Multiplying and dividing by sin x,
$I =∫\frac{\sin x}{\sin^3x}dx$
Now since we know that,
$\sin^2x = 1 - \cos^2x$
Using this in the above equation, we get
$I =∫\frac{\sin x}{(1-\cos^2x)^{3/2}} dx$
Now suppose that,
$u = \cos x$
and
$du = -\sin xdx$
then,
$I =∫\frac{-du}{(1-u^2)^{3/2}}$
Integrating with respect to the variable u, we get,
$I=\frac{-u}{\sqrt{1-u^2}}+c$
Now substituting the value of u, we get
$I=\frac{-\sin x}{\sqrt{1-\sin^2x}}+c$
Since,
$1-\sin^2x =\cos^2x$
then,
$I=\frac{-\sin x}{\cos x}+c$
Or,
$I=-\cot x+c$
Hence the integration of csc^2x is verified by using the substitution method.
