Correct answer
Ax-α and logesinx-α

Step-by-step explanation

I=tanx+tanαtanx-tanαdx=sinxcosx+sinαcosαsinxcosx-sinαcosαdx
=sinxcosα+cosxsinαsinxcosα-cosxsinαdx=sinx+αsinx-αdx
=sinx-α+2αsin(x-α)dx=sinx-αcos2α+cosx-αsin2αsin(x-α)dx
=cos2α+sin2αcotx-αdx
=xcos2α+sin2αlogesinx-α+C
=(x-α)cos2α+sin2αlogesinx-α+C
Hence, Ax=x-α and Bx=logesinx-α
