ohh

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

ya

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

i wanted use u subsitution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This requires u substitution. Do you know it?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

u=sinx ok then \[\frac{ du }{ -cosu }=dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

change sin^2x = 1/2-(cos2x)/2 . then integrate .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope, you want \(u\) to be an inner function. In this case the inner function is \(2x\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[u = 2x\quad du = 2dx\implies dx=du/2\]

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

\[\int\limits_{}^{} \sin^2x dx\]

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

in this inner function is sin x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

not 2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why to choose tougher one use identities.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah I see, well then the problem might require using a trigonometric identity, like the half angle formula.

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

well why can't i use u as sinx
