Primitive of Cosecant Function: Also presented as

Some sources present this result as the primitive of the reciprocal of the sine function:

\(\ds \int \dfrac {\d x} {\sin x}\) \(=\) \(\ds \ln \size {\tan \frac x 2} + C\)
\(\ds \int \dfrac {\d x} {\sin x}\) \(=\) \(\ds -\ln \size {\csc x + \cot x} + C\)
\(\ds \int \dfrac {\d x} {\sin x}\) \(=\) \(\ds \ln \size {\csc x - \cot x} + C\)
