Find $$$\int 16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos^{4}{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$.

Solution

Apply the power reducing formula $$$\cos^{4}{\left(\alpha \right)} = \frac{\cos{\left(2 \alpha \right)}}{2} + \frac{\cos{\left(4 \alpha \right)}}{8} + \frac{3}{8}$$$ with $$$\alpha=\theta$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos^{4}{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}} = {\color{red}{\int{2 \left(4 \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 3\right) \sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = c \int f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$ with $$$c=\frac{1}{8}$$$ and $$$f{\left(\theta \right)} = 16 \left(4 \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 3\right) \sin{\left(\theta \right)}$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{2 \left(4 \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 3\right) \sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}} = {\color{red}{\left(\frac{\int{16 \left(4 \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 3\right) \sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}{8}\right)}}$$

Expand the expression:

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{16 \left(4 \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 3\right) \sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}}}{8} = \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + 16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 48 \sin{\left(\theta \right)}\right)d \theta}}}}{8}$$

Integrate term by term:

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} + 16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} + 48 \sin{\left(\theta \right)}\right)d \theta}}}}{8} = \frac{{\color{red}{\left(\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta} + \int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} d \theta} + \int{48 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}\right)}}}{8}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = c \int f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$ with $$$c=48$$$ and $$$f{\left(\theta \right)} = \sin{\left(\theta \right)}$$$:

$$\frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\int{48 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}}}{8} = \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\left(48 \int{\sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}\right)}}}{8}$$

The integral of the sine is $$$\int{\sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta} = - \cos{\left(\theta \right)}$$$:

$$\frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + 6 {\color{red}{\int{\sin{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta}}} = \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + 6 {\color{red}{\left(- \cos{\left(\theta \right)}\right)}}$$

Rewrite $$$\sin\left(\theta \right)\cos\left(4 \theta \right)$$$ using the formula $$$\sin\left(\alpha \right)\cos\left(\beta \right)=\frac{1}{2} \sin\left(\alpha-\beta \right)+\frac{1}{2} \sin\left(\alpha+\beta \right)$$$ with $$$\alpha=\theta$$$ and $$$\beta=4 \theta$$$:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(4 \theta \right)} d \theta}}}}{8} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(- 8 \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} + 8 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)}\right)d \theta}}}}{8}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = c \int f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$ with $$$c=\frac{1}{2}$$$ and $$$f{\left(\theta \right)} = - 16 \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} + 16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)}$$$:

Integrate term by term:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(- 16 \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} + 16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)}\right)d \theta}}}}{16} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\left(- \int{16 \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} d \theta} + \int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}\right)}}}{16}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = c \int f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$ with $$$c=16$$$ and $$$f{\left(\theta \right)} = \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)}$$$:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} - \frac{{\color{red}{\int{16 \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} d \theta}}}}{16} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} - \frac{{\color{red}{\left(16 \int{\sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} d \theta}\right)}}}{16}$$

Let $$$u=3 \theta$$$.

Then $$$du=\left(3 \theta\right)^{\prime }d\theta = 3 d\theta$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$d\theta = \frac{du}{3}$$$.

Therefore,

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(u \right)}\, du = c \int f{\left(u \right)}\, du$$$ with $$$c=\frac{1}{3}$$$ and $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \sin{\left(u \right)}$$$:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} - {\color{red}{\int{\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{3} d u}}} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} - {\color{red}{\left(\frac{\int{\sin{\left(u \right)} d u}}{3}\right)}}$$

The integral of the sine is $$$\int{\sin{\left(u \right)} d u} = - \cos{\left(u \right)}$$$:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} - \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\sin{\left(u \right)} d u}}}}{3} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} - \frac{{\color{red}{\left(- \cos{\left(u \right)}\right)}}}{3}$$

Recall that $$$u=3 \theta$$$:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} + \frac{\cos{\left({\color{red}{u}} \right)}}{3} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{16} + \frac{\cos{\left({\color{red}{\left(3 \theta\right)}} \right)}}{3}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = c \int f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$ with $$$c=16$$$ and $$$f{\left(\theta \right)} = \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)}$$$:

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\int{16 \sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}}}{16} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + \frac{{\color{red}{\left(16 \int{\sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}\right)}}}{16}$$

Let $$$u=5 \theta$$$.

Then $$$du=\left(5 \theta\right)^{\prime }d\theta = 5 d\theta$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$d\theta = \frac{du}{5}$$$.

The integral can be rewritten as

$$- 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + {\color{red}{\int{\sin{\left(5 \theta \right)} d \theta}}} = - 6 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3} + \frac{\int{64 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos{\left(2 \theta \right)} d \theta}}{8} + {\color{red}{\int{\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{5} d u}}}$$

Integrate term by term:

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = c \int f{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta$$$ with $$$c=64$$$ and $$$f{\left(\theta \right)} = \sin{\left(3 \theta \right)}$$$:

The integral $$$\int{\sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} d \theta}$$$ was already calculated:

$$\int{\sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} d \theta} = - \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3}$$

Therefore,

$$- 2 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3} - \frac{\cos{\left(5 \theta \right)}}{5} + 4 {\color{red}{\int{\sin{\left(3 \theta \right)} d \theta}}} = - 2 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} + \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3} - \frac{\cos{\left(5 \theta \right)}}{5} + 4 {\color{red}{\left(- \frac{\cos{\left(3 \theta \right)}}{3}\right)}}$$

Therefore,

$$\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos^{4}{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta} = - 2 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} - \cos{\left(3 \theta \right)} - \frac{\cos{\left(5 \theta \right)}}{5}$$

Add the constant of integration:

$$\int{16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos^{4}{\left(\theta \right)} d \theta} = - 2 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} - \cos{\left(3 \theta \right)} - \frac{\cos{\left(5 \theta \right)}}{5}+C$$

Answer

$$$\int 16 \sin{\left(\theta \right)} \cos^{4}{\left(\theta \right)}\, d\theta = \left(- 2 \cos{\left(\theta \right)} - \cos{\left(3 \theta \right)} - \frac{\cos{\left(5 \theta \right)}}{5}\right) + C$$$A
