How to integrate this-example-1

To integrate, let's first clean out the inside, and simplify:


16\int {(sin x)^4} \ dx

We can now safely substitute the value of u:


u = sin x


du = cos (x) dx

Now, we can write that:


16\int{u^4} \ du

This is much easier to integrate:


16\int{u^4} \ du = 16[(1)/(5)u^5] + C

Simplify:


(16)/(5)u^5 + C

Replace u (final answer):


(16)/(5)sin^5x +C

Hope I could help with your integration.
