∫
excosxdx.
Notice that the unknown integral now appears on both sides of the equation. We can simply move the unknown
integral on the right to the left side of the equation, thus adding it to our original integral:
2
∫
excosxdx=exsinx+excosx+C.
Dividing both sides by 2,we obtain
∫
excosxdx=^12 exsinx+^12 excosx+^12 C.
Since the constant of integration is just a “dummy” constant, letC 2 →C.
Finally, our solution is
∫
excosxdx=^12 exsinx+^12 excosx+C.
