integral of cos^3(x/(16))

\int cos^{3} (\frac{x}{16}) d x

16 (sin (\frac{x}{16}) - \frac{sin ^{3} ( \frac{x}{16} )}{3}) + C

Solution steps

\int cos^{3} (\frac{x}{16}) d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int cos^{3} (u) \cdot 16 d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 16 \cdot \int cos^{3} (u) d u

Rewrite using trig identities

= 16 \cdot \int (1 - sin^{2} (u)) cos (u) d u

Apply u-substitution

= 16 \cdot \int 1 - v^{2} d v

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

= 16 (\int 1 d v - \int v^{2} d v)

\int 1 d v = v

\int v^{2} d v = \frac{v ^{3}}{3}

= 16 (v - \frac{v ^{3}}{3})

Substitute back

= 16 (sin (\frac{x}{16}) - \frac{sin ^{3} ( \frac{x}{16} )}{3})

Add a constant to the solution

= 16 (sin (\frac{x}{16}) - \frac{sin ^{3} ( \frac{x}{16} )}{3}) + C
