integral 25cos^2(x)

OpenStudy (callisto):

Hint: \[cos^2x = \frac{1}{2}(cos2x+1)\]

Parth (parthkohli):

Hint #2: Take the constant out :P

Parth (parthkohli):

(That was unnecessary ^)

OpenStudy (callisto):

Hmmm.... \[\int 25cos^2(x)dx\]\[=\int\frac{25}{2}(cos2x+1)dx\]The factor 25/2, which is a constant, can be pulled out of the integral..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you do after you pull out the constant?

OpenStudy (callisto):

Integrate it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you integrate cos(2x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

never mind i know how!
