Evaluating $\\int P(\\sin x, \\cos x) \\text{d}x$
Ways to evaluate $\int \sec \theta \, \mathrm d \theta$
Using Mathematica to get the antiderivative for sec(x), I get $$-\log(\cos\frac{x}{2}-\sin\frac{x}{2})+\log(\cos\frac{x}{2}+\sin\frac{x}{2}).$$
This doesn't look familiar, so, I'm thinking there's probably some identity or other way to transform this...
Any insight would be appreciated.
