How Do You Integrate the Square Root of Tan x?

In summary, the conversation was about integrating the square root of tan x and various methods and approaches were suggested. It was also mentioned that a similar integral involving the square root of sin x was more interesting to consider. The importance of verifying the integrability of a function before attempting to find its integral was also emphasized. A specific domain for the function was given and a discussion about equations and expressions ensued. Finally, a Calculus I student was encouraged to practice integrating the given equation.
