integral of cos^2(2x)

integral

cos^{2} (2 x)

\frac{1}{2} (x + \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)) + C

Solution steps

\int cos^{2} (2 x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int \frac{1}{2} (1 + cos (4 x)) d x

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int 1 + cos (4 x) d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \frac{1}{2} (\int 1 d x + \int cos (4 x) d x)

\int 1 d x = x

\int cos (4 x) d x = \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)

= \frac{1}{2} (x + \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{2} (x + \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)) + C

\int 4 - e^{- x} d x

\int \frac{cos ( u )}{sin ^{2} ( u )} d u

\int \frac{x}{1 - 9 x ^{4}} d x

\int \frac{8 x - 1}{x ^{2} + x - 6} d x

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