You would probably use a power-reduction trig identity to solve this equation.

This states that sin2(x) = (1 - cos(2x))/2

Therefore, sin2(2x) = (1 - cos(4x))/2, or (1/2)(1 - cos(4x))

So, ∫ (1/2)(1 - cos(4x)) dx = (1/2) ∫ (1 - cos(4x)) dx.

Then, ∫ (1-cos4x)dx = x - (1/4)sin(4x) + c

Now, multiply that by (1/2) to get:

(x - (sin(4x)/4) + c)/2

Since c is an arbitrary constant, we have:

½(x - sin(4x) / 4) + c

OR

1/8 * (4x - sin(4x)) + c

Integral of sin squared x?

First we look at the double-angle identity of cos2x. We know that: cos2x = cos^2x - sin^2x cos2x = [1-sin^2x] - sin^2x.............. (From sin^2x + cos^2x = 1, cos^2x = 1 - sin^2x) Therefore: cos2x = 1 - 2sin^2x 2sin^2x = 1 - cos2x sin^2x = 1/2(1-cos2x) sin^2x = 1/2 - cos2x/2 And intergrating, we get: x/2 - sin2x/4 + c...................(Integral of cos2x = 1/2sin2x; and c is a constant)

Integral of sec2x-cosx plus x2dx?

I wasn't entirely sure what you meant, but if the problem was to find the integral of [sec(2x)-cos(x)+x^2]dx, then in order to get the answer you must follow a couple of steps:First you should separate the problem into three parts as you are allowed to with integration. So it becomes the integral of sec(2x) - the integral of cos(x) + the integral of x^2Then solve each part separatelyThe integral of sec(2x) is -(cos(2x)/2)The integral of cos(x) is sin(x)The integral of x^2 isLastly you must combine them together:-(cos(2x)/2) - sin(x) + (x^3)/3


Integral of sin x sin 2x?

Ok, I know that sin 2x can be substituted out for 2 sin x cos x. so now I have the Integral of (sin x ) ( 2 sin x cos x ) dx which is 2 sin2x cos x dx If I use integration by parts with the u and dv, I find myself right back again..can you help. The book gives an answer, but I am not sure how it was achieved. the book gives 2/3 sin 2x cos x - 1/3 cos 2x sin x + C I may be making this more difficult than it is ? when you get the integral of 2 sin2x cos x dx use u substitution. u= sinx du= cosxdx. Then you'll get the integral of 2u^2 du.. .and then integrate...
