Integral de $$$\frac{\cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}}$$$

Halla $$$\int \frac{\cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}}\, dx$$$.

Reescribe en términos de la cotangente:

$${\color{red}{\int{\frac{\cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}} d x}}} = {\color{red}{\int{\cot^{4}{\left(x \right)} d x}}}$$

Sea $$$u=\cot{\left(x \right)}$$$.

Entonces $$$du=\left(\cot{\left(x \right)}\right)^{\prime }dx = - \csc^{2}{\left(x \right)} dx$$$ (los pasos pueden verse »), y obtenemos que $$$\csc^{2}{\left(x \right)} dx = - du$$$.

Entonces,

$${\color{red}{\int{\cot^{4}{\left(x \right)} d x}}} = {\color{red}{\int{\left(- \frac{u^{4}}{u^{2} + 1}\right)d u}}}$$

Aplica la regla del factor constante $$$\int c f{\left(u \right)}\, du = c \int f{\left(u \right)}\, du$$$ con $$$c=-1$$$ y $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \frac{u^{4}}{u^{2} + 1}$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{\left(- \frac{u^{4}}{u^{2} + 1}\right)d u}}} = {\color{red}{\left(- \int{\frac{u^{4}}{u^{2} + 1} d u}\right)}}$$

Como el grado del numerador no es menor que el grado del denominador, realiza la división larga de polinomios (los pasos pueden verse »):

$$- {\color{red}{\int{\frac{u^{4}}{u^{2} + 1} d u}}} = - {\color{red}{\int{\left(u^{2} - 1 + \frac{1}{u^{2} + 1}\right)d u}}}$$

Integra término a término:

$$- {\color{red}{\int{\left(u^{2} - 1 + \frac{1}{u^{2} + 1}\right)d u}}} = - {\color{red}{\left(- \int{1 d u} + \int{u^{2} d u} + \int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u}\right)}}$$

Aplica la regla de la constante $$$\int c\, du = c u$$$ con $$$c=1$$$:

$$- \int{u^{2} d u} - \int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u} + {\color{red}{\int{1 d u}}} = - \int{u^{2} d u} - \int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u} + {\color{red}{u}}$$

Aplica la regla de la potencia $$$\int u^{n}\, du = \frac{u^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$$$ $$$\left(n \neq -1 \right)$$$ con $$$n=2$$$:

$$u - \int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u} - {\color{red}{\int{u^{2} d u}}}=u - \int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u} - {\color{red}{\frac{u^{1 + 2}}{1 + 2}}}=u - \int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u} - {\color{red}{\left(\frac{u^{3}}{3}\right)}}$$

La integral de $$$\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1}$$$ es $$$\int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u} = \operatorname{atan}{\left(u \right)}$$$:

$$- \frac{u^{3}}{3} + u - {\color{red}{\int{\frac{1}{u^{2} + 1} d u}}} = - \frac{u^{3}}{3} + u - {\color{red}{\operatorname{atan}{\left(u \right)}}}$$

Recordemos que $$$u=\cot{\left(x \right)}$$$:

$$- \operatorname{atan}{\left({\color{red}{u}} \right)} + {\color{red}{u}} - \frac{{\color{red}{u}}^{3}}{3} = - \operatorname{atan}{\left({\color{red}{\cot{\left(x \right)}}} \right)} + {\color{red}{\cot{\left(x \right)}}} - \frac{{\color{red}{\cot{\left(x \right)}}}^{3}}{3}$$

Por lo tanto,

$$\int{\frac{\cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}} d x} = - \frac{\cot^{3}{\left(x \right)}}{3} + \cot{\left(x \right)} - \operatorname{atan}{\left(\cot{\left(x \right)} \right)}$$

Añade la constante de integración:

$$\int{\frac{\cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}} d x} = - \frac{\cot^{3}{\left(x \right)}}{3} + \cot{\left(x \right)} - \operatorname{atan}{\left(\cot{\left(x \right)} \right)}+C$$

$$$\int \frac{\cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\sin^{4}{\left(x \right)}}\, dx = \left(- \frac{\cot^{3}{\left(x \right)}}{3} + \cot{\left(x \right)} - \operatorname{atan}{\left(\cot{\left(x \right)} \right)}\right) + C$$$A
