The correct answer is: -32
We have,
tan(x-a)tanx+α.tan2xdx
=plogsec2x+qlogsecx+a+rlogsecx-a+C
tan2x=tanx-α+x+α
=tan(x-α)+tan(x+α)]
1-tanx-αtanx+α
tan2x-tan2xtanx-αtanx+α
=tanx-α+tanx+α
tanx-αtanx+αtan2x
tan2x-tanx-α-tanx+α
tan(x-a)tanx+α.tan2xdx
logsec2x2-log|sec(x-α)|-log|sec(x+α)+C
=12logsec2x+-1logsecx+α + +(-1)log|sec(x-α)+C
p=12,g-1 and r=-1
p+q+r=12+-1+-1=12-2=-32
