evaluate integral of sin^(2)xcos^(4)xdx, the answer on the book is (-1/6)cos^(5)xsinx+(1/24)cos^(3)xsinx+(1/16)cosxsinx+(1/16)x+C, for some reason i got something different when i did it

What was your method of operation?
Are you SURE your result was not equivalent?

anonymous · Answer

you're right, both answers are equivalent, i just checked, thank you

Good work.  It is sometimes a little confusing.  Remember, with that "+C", thing going on, these are IDENTICAL results:

$\sin^{2}(x) + C_{1} = \cos^{2}(x) + C_{2}$
