integral of 6cos^4(x)

\int 6 cos^{4} (x) d x

6 (cos^{3} (x) sin (x) + \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))) + C

Solution steps

\int 6 cos^{4} (x) d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 6 \cdot \int cos^{4} (x) d x

Simplify

cos^{4} (x) : cos^{3} (x) cos (x)

= 6 \cdot \int cos^{3} (x) cos (x) d x

Apply Integration By Parts

= 6 (cos^{3} (x) sin (x) - \int - 3 cos^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x) d x)

\int - 3 cos^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x) d x = - \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))

= 6 (cos^{3} (x) sin (x) - (- \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))))

Simplify

= 6 (cos^{3} (x) sin (x) + \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)))

Add a constant to the solution

= 6 (cos^{3} (x) sin (x) + \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))) + C
