integrals are very easy to learn. Once you've differentiated enough, you learn patterns and are able to blaze through derivatives, and once you learn the basic integration formulas, you can recognize patterns and common cases fairly easily :)
This particular solution is very useful to memorize; it's applicable to quite a few equations, such as integral of e^x (1+e^2x)^1/2. Using trignometric substitution, allowing e^x = tan(t), e^x dx = sec^2(t) than (1+e^2x)^1/2 = sec(t), thus the original equation may be rewritten as integral of sec^3(t), allowing for the method used in the video to be employed. Neat stuff!
Notice, sin(x)/cos(x)=tan(x). If you rewrite you solution you can obtain an expanded answer. Combine the logs by properties of logs.
log(a)-log(b)=log(a/b). I don't know why the period is different, but you shouldn't always trust calculators and computers.
Try evaluating the integral from 0, pi/3 or something for both solutions and see what that gives you.* Make sure your interval is in the domain of the function.
this lesson is great but try this khan academy lots of lesson on caculus maybe you find what you looking
tnx..

this is fabulous. i had to deal with a problem just like this and i never thought to move the common integral to the other side!

an integral is just an area of an irregular object

If you use wolframalpha you get slightly longer result:
integral sec^3(x) dx =
= 1/2 (tan(x) sec(x)-log(cos(x/2)-sin(x/2))+log(sin(x/2)+cos(x/2)))+c

W|A gives you real and imaginary part, while solution in the video doesn't have imaginary part. Try plotting both functions. :)
