If \(\displaystyle \displaystyle{ \int_0^{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} } \, \tan^6(x)\, \sec(x)\, dx\, =\, I,\) express the value of \(\displaystyle \displaystyle{ \int_0^{\dfrac{\pi}{4}} } \, \tan^8(x)\, \sec(x)\, dx\) in terms of \(\displaystyle I.\)
I'm so lost with this problem. I don't even know where to begin.
Originally I thought I would find the value of the first equation and set it equal to I. Then I thought I could find the value of the second equation and divide by the value that is I to find the answer.
I don't know if this method is correct, and even if it is, I don't know how to find the value of the first equation.
Thank you for your help.
