  • \(\tan x+\cot x+c\)
  • \((\tan x+\cot x)^{2}+c\)
  • \(\tan x-\cot x+c\)

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

\(\frac{1}{\sin^2 x\cos^2 x}=\frac{\sin^2 x+\cos^2 x}{\sin^2 x\cos^2 x}=\sec^2 x+\operatorname{cosec}^2 x\).
\(\int(\sec^2 x+\operatorname{cosec}^2 x)\,dx=\tan x-\cot x+c\).
Answer: (3) \(\tan x-\cot x+c\)
