00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.239
Here is the problem: integrate sin(2x)x.

2
00:00:03.689 --> 00:00:09.459
Find the indefinite integral (antiderivative) of sin(2 x) x with respect to x.

3
00:00:10.259 --> 00:00:11.699
Start with the integral.

4
00:00:12.149 --> 00:00:23.922
Integration by parts (tabular method). Differentiate the polynomial x until it reaches 0, integrate sin(2 x) the same number of times, and combine with alternating signs.

5
00:00:24.372 --> 00:00:26.520
Combine the alternating products.

6
00:00:26.970 --> 00:00:30.000
Simplify and add the constant of integration.

7
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:37.185
So the answer is -(x times cos(2x) / 2) plus sin(2x) / 4 plus C.

8
00:00:37.636 --> 00:00:48.631
An antiderivative F satisfies F prime of x equals f(x). Because the derivative of any constant is 0, every antiderivative differs by a constant C.

9
00:00:49.431 --> 00:00:55.340
Differentiated the answer and compared it with the integrand at 8 sample points, which checks out.
