Let's solve the following random integral:
∫e2xsin(3x)dx
To solve this integral, we will use integration by parts twice. Integration by parts formula is given by:
∫udv=uv−∫vdu
First, let's set:
u=e2xanddv=sin(3x)dx
Next, we find du and v:
du=2e2xdx
v=∫sin(3x)dx=−31cos(3x)
Now, apply the integration by parts formula:
∫e2xsin(3x)dx=e2x(−31cos(3x))−∫(−31cos(3x))⋅2e2xdx
Simplify:
=−31e2xcos(3x)+32∫e2xcos(3x)dx
We now need to solve the integral ∫e2xcos(3x)dx. Again, we use integration by parts, setting:
u=e2xanddv=cos(3x)dx
Next, we find du and v:
du=2e2xdx
v=∫cos(3x)dx=31sin(3x)
Now, apply the integration by parts formula again:
∫e2xcos(3x)dx=e2x(31sin(3x))−∫(31sin(3x))⋅2e2xdx
Simplify:
=31e2xsin(3x)−32∫e2xsin(3x)dx
Now we have:
∫e2xcos(3x)dx=31e2xsin(3x)−32∫e2xsin(3x)dx
Let's denote I=∫e2xsin(3x)dx. Then:
I=−31e2xcos(3x)+32(31e2xsin(3x)−32I)
Simplify:
I=−31e2xcos(3x)+92e2xsin(3x)−94I
Combine like terms:
I+94I=−31e2xcos(3x)+92e2xsin(3x)
913I=−31e2xcos(3x)+92e2xsin(3x)
Solve for I:
I=139(−31e2xcos(3x)+92e2xsin(3x))
Simplify:
I=−133e2xcos(3x)+132e2xsin(3x)+C
So, the solution to the integral is:
∫e2xsin(3x)dx=−133e2xcos(3x)+132e2xsin(3x)+C
