Hello, I've been trying to solve this for a while now, but no success! I mean, I have an expression for this but not a closed one. I derived something in terms of Tchebychev Polynomials : cos(nx) = P_n(cos(x)). Any help is appreciated. Compute the following primitive: \[ \int \frac{x\sin\left(2004 x\right)}{\tan x}\ dx\]
