Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\text{x}^2\cos\text{x dx}$
✓
Answer
$\int\text{x}^2\cos\text{x dx}$
Taking $x^2$ as the first function and cos x as the second function.
$=\text{x}^2\int\cos\text{x dx}-\int\big(\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\text{x}^2\int\cos\text{x dx}\big)\text{dx}$
$=\text{x}^2\sin\text{x}-\int2\text{x}\sin\text{x dx}$
$=\text{x}^2\sin\text{x}-2\big[\text{x}\int\sin\text{x}-\int\big\{\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})\int\sin\text{x dx}\big\}\text{dx}\big]$
$=\text{x}^2\sin\text{x}-2[-\text{x}\cos\text{x}+\int\cos\text{x dx}]$
$=\text{x}^2\sin\text{x}+2\text{x}\cos\text{x}-2\sin\text{x+C}$
