Primitive of Square of Hyperbolic Cosecant of a x

Theorem

$\ds \int \csch^2 a x \rd x = \frac {-\coth a x} a + C$

Proof

\(\ds \int \csch^2 x \rd x\)

\(=\)

\(\ds -\coth x + C\)

Primitive of $\csch^2 x$

\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \)

\(\ds \int \csch^2 a x \rd x\)

\(=\)

\(\ds \frac 1 a \paren {-\coth a x} + C\)

Primitive of Function of Constant Multiple

\(\ds \)

\(=\)

\(\ds \frac {-\coth a x} a + C\)

simplifying

$\blacksquare$
