integral of sin(x^1/2)
\[\int\limits_{}^{}\sin \sqrt{x}\] to make it clear and \[u^2 = x\] is the substitution
Do you know integral by parts?
u'v+uv'?
In this case, you should take substitution first, and then by parts.
how did u conclude to that?
Let t = \(\sqrt x\) --> dt=\(\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt x}dx\) you have \(2\sqrt x dt=dx\) or 2tdt = dx
the integral becomes \( \int 2tsint dt\) now, apply integral by parts
let u = 2t, dv = sint dt you can handle from here, right?
yes thanx:)
:)
\[2\sin \sqrt{x}-2\sqrt{x}\cos \sqrt{x}\] is what I got which is correct also according to the book.
Now, how did you come to this conclusion on deciding that what should be dt and dx? alot of practice or intuition?
@OOOPS
The letter I used, t, for the first substitute is just for not confused with the second part. If I use u = sqrt x, It will be unclear on the second part when we take integral by parts. That's it.
okey, thanx for making it clear:)
