Your Input

Find $$$\int \sin^{3}{\left(2 x \right)}\, dx$$$.

Solution

Let $$$u=2 x$$$.

Then $$$du=\left(2 x\right)^{\prime }dx = 2 dx$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$dx = \frac{du}{2}$$$.

Therefore,

$${\color{red}{\int{\sin^{3}{\left(2 x \right)} d x}}} = {\color{red}{\int{\frac{\sin^{3}{\left(u \right)}}{2} d u}}}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(u \right)}\, du = c \int f{\left(u \right)}\, du$$$ with $$$c=\frac{1}{2}$$$ and $$$f{\left(u \right)} = \sin^{3}{\left(u \right)}$$$:

$${\color{red}{\int{\frac{\sin^{3}{\left(u \right)}}{2} d u}}} = {\color{red}{\left(\frac{\int{\sin^{3}{\left(u \right)} d u}}{2}\right)}}$$

Strip out one sine and write everything else in terms of the cosine, using the formula $$$\sin^2\left(\alpha \right)=-\cos^2\left(\alpha \right)+1$$$ with $$$\alpha= u $$$:

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{\sin^{3}{\left(u \right)} d u}}}}{2} = \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(1 - \cos^{2}{\left(u \right)}\right) \sin{\left(u \right)} d u}}}}{2}$$

Let $$$v=\cos{\left(u \right)}$$$.

Then $$$dv=\left(\cos{\left(u \right)}\right)^{\prime }du = - \sin{\left(u \right)} du$$$ (steps can be seen »), and we have that $$$\sin{\left(u \right)} du = - dv$$$.

The integral can be rewritten as

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(1 - \cos^{2}{\left(u \right)}\right) \sin{\left(u \right)} d u}}}}{2} = \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(v^{2} - 1\right)d v}}}}{2}$$

Apply the constant multiple rule $$$\int c f{\left(v \right)}\, dv = c \int f{\left(v \right)}\, dv$$$ with $$$c=-1$$$ and $$$f{\left(v \right)} = 1 - v^{2}$$$:

$$\frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(v^{2} - 1\right)d v}}}}{2} = \frac{{\color{red}{\left(- \int{\left(1 - v^{2}\right)d v}\right)}}}{2}$$

Integrate term by term:

$$- \frac{{\color{red}{\int{\left(1 - v^{2}\right)d v}}}}{2} = - \frac{{\color{red}{\left(\int{1 d v} - \int{v^{2} d v}\right)}}}{2}$$

Apply the constant rule $$$\int c\, dv = c v$$$ with $$$c=1$$$:

$$\frac{\int{v^{2} d v}}{2} - \frac{{\color{red}{\int{1 d v}}}}{2} = \frac{\int{v^{2} d v}}{2} - \frac{{\color{red}{v}}}{2}$$

Apply the power rule $$$\int v^{n}\, dv = \frac{v^{n + 1}}{n + 1}$$$ $$$\left(n \neq -1 \right)$$$ with $$$n=2$$$:

$$- \frac{v}{2} + \frac{{\color{red}{\int{v^{2} d v}}}}{2}=- \frac{v}{2} + \frac{{\color{red}{\frac{v^{1 + 2}}{1 + 2}}}}{2}=- \frac{v}{2} + \frac{{\color{red}{\left(\frac{v^{3}}{3}\right)}}}{2}$$

Recall that $$$v=\cos{\left(u \right)}$$$:

$$- \frac{{\color{red}{v}}}{2} + \frac{{\color{red}{v}}^{3}}{6} = - \frac{{\color{red}{\cos{\left(u \right)}}}}{2} + \frac{{\color{red}{\cos{\left(u \right)}}}^{3}}{6}$$

Recall that $$$u=2 x$$$:

$$- \frac{\cos{\left({\color{red}{u}} \right)}}{2} + \frac{\cos^{3}{\left({\color{red}{u}} \right)}}{6} = - \frac{\cos{\left({\color{red}{\left(2 x\right)}} \right)}}{2} + \frac{\cos^{3}{\left({\color{red}{\left(2 x\right)}} \right)}}{6}$$

Therefore,

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

Simplify:

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

Add the constant of integration:

$$\int{\sin^{3}{\left(2 x \right)} d x} = \frac{\left(\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} - 3\right) \cos{\left(2 x \right)}}{6}+C$$

Answer

$$$\int \sin^{3}{\left(2 x \right)}\, dx = \frac{\left(\cos^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} - 3\right) \cos{\left(2 x \right)}}{6} + C$$$A
