Solution

∫ cot6 x dx
= ∫ cot4 x . (cosec2 – 1) dx
= ∫ cot4 x × cosec2 x dx – ​∫ cot4 x dx 

= ∫ cot4 x . cosec2 x dx – ​∫ cot2 x . cot2 x dx
= ∫ cot4 x – cosec2 x dx – ​∫ (cosec2 x – 1) cot2 x dx
= ∫ cot4 x . cosec2 x dx – ​∫ cot2 x . cosec2 x dx + ​∫ cot2 x dx

= ∫ cot4 x . cosec2 x dx – ​∫ cot2 x . cosec2 x dx + ​∫ (cosec2 x – 1) dx
Now, let I1= ∫ cot4 x . cosec2 x dx – ​∫ cot2 x . cosec2 x dx
And I2= ∫ (cosec2 x – 1) dx

First we integrate I1
I1= ∫ cot4 x . cosec2 x dx – ​∫ cot2 x . cosec2 x dx
Let cot x = t

⇒ –cosec2 x dx = dt
⇒ cosec2 dx = – dt
I1=– ∫ ​t4 dt + ​∫ t2 dt

\[= \frac{- t^5}{5} + \frac{t^3}{3} + C_1 \]
\[ = - \frac{\cot^5 x}{5} + \frac{\cot^3 x}{3} + C_1\]

Now we integrate I2
I2= ∫ (cosec2 x – 1) dx
   = – cot x – x + C1
Now, ∫ cot6 x dx=I1 + I2

\[- \frac{1}{5} \cot^5 x + \frac{1}{3} \cot^3 x - \cot x - x + C_1 + C_2\]
\[- \frac{1}{5} \cot^5 x + \frac{1}{3} \cot^3 x - \cot x - x + C \left[ \therefore C = C_1 + C_2 \right]\]
