\[\sin^3(3x)\cos^5(3x)=\sin(3x)\sin^2(3x)\cos^5(3x)=\sin(3x)(1-\cos^2(3x))\cos^5(3x)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wow youre amazing!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but there is more to it right?
OpenStudy (zarkon):
now use u-substitution
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so u =sin(3x)?

no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then it equals the cos?
OpenStudy (zarkon):
yes u=cos(3x)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so du= -sin(3x) ! :)
OpenStudy (zarkon):
no...but close

chain rule
OpenStudy (anonymous):
times 3 also!
OpenStudy (zarkon):
yes
OpenStudy (zarkon):
and don't forget your dx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and now dv=sin(3x)?

right! youre so amazing!
OpenStudy (zarkon):
please stop saying that....
\[du= -\sin(3x)3 dx\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes thats what I got
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im sorry
OpenStudy (zarkon):
now replace everything, simplify (or expand) and then integrate

dont I need to also get dv?
OpenStudy (zarkon):
dv?
what is v
are you thinking about integration by parts?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh yeah that must be it...
so in u subsitution I just use u and then replace it?
OpenStudy (zarkon):
just u
OpenStudy (zarkon):
find du...replace the stuff...then integrate

how can i replace the sin(3x) though and the 1-cos^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
cuz I dont have those in either u nor du
OpenStudy (zarkon):
\[du=-\sin(3x)3dx\]
\[-\frac{1}{3}du=\sin(3x)dx\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I have to go, but thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it. I have to look into this u subsitution some more.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh I see.. so change the du accordingly...thank you a lot

\[1-\cos^2(3x)\]
becomes
\[1-u^2\]
