solve the indefinite integral \[\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{ \sin6t }{ \sin3t }\]

hartnn (hartnn):

sin 6t = 2 sin 3t cos 3t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right i got that

hartnn (hartnn):

still any problem solving the integral ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm yea i guess when I get to the substitution part

hartnn (hartnn):

ok, so you are left with 2 cos 3t and you are trying to substitute 3t = u ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes and then what should du be? du=2dt?

hartnn (hartnn):

3t = u 3 dt = du so, you will put dt as du/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh because it's kind of like reverse chain rule and you would need to find the antiderivative of 3t? is that why it's 3dt?

hartnn (hartnn):

yes, you can say that. or just take the derivative, u= 3t du/dt = 3 du = 3dt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok that makes even more sense. I just needed some sort of explanation. IT wasn't making sense

hartnn (hartnn):

ok, good! now you can solve it entirely, right ? don't forget to re-substitute back u =3t and add +c in the end

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be (2/3)sin3t+c

hartnn (hartnn):

yes, it is :)
