Help with this integral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When I try using parts, it becomes endless...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you integral the second time, it comes back to the original one, stop there!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do I solve this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do choose u and dv?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So that the integral simplifies

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe I can make dv = dx and u = e^2x sinx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, you totally don't know about integral by Part :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

du = 2e^2x v = -cosx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-cosx(e^2x) - (integral (-cosx)(2e^2x))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u = cosx, dv = e^(2x) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what have you showed me? all you did was say u = e^2x and dv = sinx and told me to use parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So how do you do it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now I just substitute u for e^2x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

integral (ucosx)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u = e^2x , dv = cosx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

du = 2e^(2x) v = sinx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it never ends...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Plug in, you'll see! I've told you that stop at the second time, have I?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok e^(2x)(sinx) - 2 integral((sinx)(e^(2x)))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why did you use I ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok what do I do with I

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-cosx)(e^(2x)) + 2(e^(2x)sinx - 2I)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 I = -e^(2x) cosx + 2e^(2x) sinx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I = (-e^(2x) cosx + 2e^(2x) sinx) / 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Again, simplify: I = [ e^(2x)/ 5 ] [ 2sinx - cosx ]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factor e^(2x) out, that's all :0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok I see. now what

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"NOW WHAT" , that's DONE !!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow this is interesting. what is the name of this technique?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and why does it work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind i figured it out. Because you set it equal to the beginning so you can say everything equals I, then solve for I. Wow thanks!
