integral of sin(αx)

\int sin (αx) d x

- \frac{1}{α} cos (αx) + C

Solution steps

\int sin (αx) d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{sin ( u )}{α} d u

= \int \frac{sin ( u )}{α} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{α} \cdot \int sin (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int sin (u) d u = - cos (u)

= \frac{1}{α} (- cos (u))

Substitute back

u = αx

= \frac{1}{α} (- cos (αx))

Simplify

= - \frac{1}{α} cos (αx)

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{α} cos (αx) + C

\int \frac{5 x - 4}{x ^{2} + 3 x + 2} d x

\int - x + 1 d x

\int \frac{x - 3}{x - 2} d x

\int 2 y e^{y} d y

\int \frac{e ^{- \frac{1}{x}}}{4 x ^{2}} d x
