∫ tan⁴ 2x dx

= ∫ (tan² 2x)² dx

= ∫ (sec² 2x - 1)(tan² 2x) dx

(Recall that 1 + tan² θ = sec² θ)

= ∫ (sec² 2x tan² 2x - tan² 2x) dx

= ∫ (½tan² 2x (2sec² 2x) - (sec² 2x - 1) ) dx

= ∫ (½(tan 2x)² (2sec² 2x) - ½(2sec² 2x) + 1) dx

Realise that differentiating tan 2x gives 2 sec² 2x so this is directly integrable.

so the first part of the expression is in the form
y² dy/dx , where y = tan 2x and dy/dx = 2sec² 2x
So this integrates back into ⅓y³


= ½(tan 2x)³ / 3 - ½tan 2x + x

= 1/6 tan³ 2x - ½tan 2x + x + c
