Since cos(x) is the derivative of sin(x), then integral 16 sin^2(x) cos(x) dx can be done by substituting u = sin (x) sin (x) and du = cos (x) cos (x)^dx. With the substitution u = sin(x), we get integral 16 sin^2 (x) cos(x) dx = 16 integral u^2 du. which integrates to + C. Substituting back in to get the answer in terms of sin(x), we have integral 16 sin^2 (x) cos (x) dx = + C.

Find the integral of
f(x) =  16sin^2 (x ) cos(x) dx

Answer:

The solution is
(16)/(3) sin^(3)x + c

Explanation:

So


Let \  u  =  sin(x)

=>
(du)/(dx)  =  cos (x)

=>
du  =  cos(x)dx

So


\int\limits {16sin^2 (x ) cos(x) dx} \, \equiv \int\limits {16u^2  du}

=>
\int\limits {16u^2  du} = 16 [(u^3)/(3) ] + c

Now substituting sin(x) for u


(16)/(3) u^3 + c  =  (16)/(3) sin^(3)x + c

So the integral of
f(x) =  16sin^2 (x ) cos(x) dx is


(16)/(3) sin^(3)x + c
