Answer:

The common difference would be calculated as:

(a21-a19)/2

(-164--(-58 ))/2 (Replacing the values )

(-164 +58)/2 (Changing signs)

(-106)/2(Subtracting)

-53

Then we are going to replace the common difference(d) in the sequence formal with the 21st term . It is done for finding the first term of the sequence.

a21=a0+d*(n-1)

-164=a0+-53*(21-1) (Replacing the values)

-164=a1-53(20) (Subtracting)

-164=a1-1060 (Multiplying )

-164+1060=a1 (Adding 1060 on both sides of the equation)

896=a1

The answer would be : an= 896-53*(n-1), which is the option B.

Integrate this for me please

$\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{6}}tan^2(x)sec^2(x)\cdot dx
\\------------------\\
u=tan(x)\implies \frac{du}{dx}=sec^2(x)\implies \frac{du}{sec^2(x)}=dx
\\------------------\\
\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{6}}u^2sec^2(x)\cdot \cfrac{du}{sec^2(x)}\implies 
\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{6}}u^2\cdot du
\\ \quad \\
$

$\textit{now, we need to change the bounds as well, so}
\\------------------\\
u(0)=tan(0)\implies 0
\\ \quad \\

u\left( \frac{\pi }{6} \right)=tan\left( \frac{\pi }{6} \right)\implies \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
\\------------------\\
thus\implies \int\limits_{0}^{\frac{1 }{\sqrt{3}}}u^2\cdot du$

and surely you can take it from there,
recall, that, since we changed the bounds, with the u(x),
you don't need to change the variable "u", and simply,
get the integral of it, simple enough, and apply those bounds
