Integral :)

OpenStudy (kl0723):

\[\int\limits (x-1)\sin(\Pi x)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that pi?

OpenStudy (kl0723):

taht is Pi :)... so if I make dv=Sin(Pi*x), can I take out Pi? so v=-Picos(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Basically. The derivative of sin(ax) = -a(cos(ax)), after all. And then you just do the rest of integration by parts.

OpenStudy (kl0723):

oh cool :) I'll work on it and maybe you can help me by checking?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure, no problem.

OpenStudy (kl0723):

@greenglasses like this?

OpenStudy (kl0723):

I think I found a mistake on that ;/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, I'm not sure where you got the 2pi.

OpenStudy (kl0723):

it should be (Pi)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm getting (x-1)(-pi cos(pi.x)) -sin(pi.x) + c

OpenStudy (kl0723):

OpenStudy (kl0723):

the v=-Pi(Cos[Pi*x])

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, the integral of cos(pi.x) would be (1/pi)(sin(pi.x)), not pi(sin(pi.x)). The two pis would cancel out.

OpenStudy (kl0723):

hmm I see... so then in your second comment, did you mean derivative or integral of Sin(ax)=-aCox(ax)?

OpenStudy (kl0723):

I got confused lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Second comment I meant derivative.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the opposite when you're going the other way 'round.
