integral of sin(a*x)

\int sin (a \cdot x) d x

- \frac{1}{a} cos (a x) + C

Solution steps

\int sin (a x) d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{sin ( u )}{a} d u

= \int \frac{sin ( u )}{a} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{a} \cdot \int sin (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= \frac{1}{a} (- cos (u))

Substitute back

u = a x

= \frac{1}{a} (- cos (a x))

Simplify

= - \frac{1}{a} cos (a x)

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{a} cos (a x) + C

\int \frac{ln ( y + b )}{y + b} d y

\int \frac{2 x}{x ^{4} + 9} d x

\int (\frac{1}{x ( 1 + x )}) d x

\int tan^{6} (3 x) sec^{4} (3 x) d x

\int sin^{2} (x + 1) - 2 d x
