integral of 6cos^3(4x)

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

\frac{3}{2} sin (4 x) - \frac{1}{2} sin^{3} (4 x) + C

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

= 6 \cdot \int cos^{3} (u) \frac{1}{4} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 6 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int cos^{3} (u) d u

Rewrite using trig identities

= 6 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int (1 - sin^{2} (u)) cos (u) d u

Apply u-substitution

= 6 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \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

= 6 \cdot \frac{1}{4} (\int 1 d v - \int v^{2} d v)

\int 1 d v = v

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

= 6 \cdot \frac{1}{4} (v - \frac{v ^{3}}{3})

Substitute back

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

Simplify

6 \cdot \frac{1}{4} (sin (4 x) - \frac{sin ^{3} ( 4 x )}{3}) : \frac{3}{2} sin (4 x) - \frac{1}{2} sin^{3} (4 x)

= \frac{3}{2} sin (4 x) - \frac{1}{2} sin^{3} (4 x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{3}{2} sin (4 x) - \frac{1}{2} sin^{3} (4 x) + C
