integral of (1+cos(4x))/2

\int \frac{1 + cos ( 4 x )}{2} d x

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{1 + cos ( 4 x )}{2} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int 1 + cos (4 x) d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

= \frac{1}{2} (\int 1 d x + \int cos (4 x) d x)

\int 1 d x = x

\int cos (4 x) d x = \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)

= \frac{1}{2} (x + \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))

Add a constant to the solution

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