The correct Answer is:
To solve the integral \( \int \cos^3 x \sin x \, dx \), we can use the substitution method. Here are the steps: ### Step 1: Choose a substitution Let \( t = \cos x \). Then, the derivative of \( t \) with respect to \( x \) is: \[ \frac{dt}{dx} = -\sin x \quad \Rightarrow \quad dt = -\sin x \, dx \] This implies that \( \sin x \, dx = -dt \). ### Step 2: Rewrite the integral Substituting \( t \) and \( dt \) into the integral, we have: \[ \int \cos^3 x \sin x \, dx = \int t^3 (-dt) = -\int t^3 \, dt \] ### Step 3: Integrate Now, we can integrate \( -\int t^3 \, dt \): \[ -\int t^3 \, dt = -\left( \frac{t^4}{4} \right) + C = -\frac{t^4}{4} + C \] ### Step 4: Substitute back for \( t \) Now, substitute back \( t = \cos x \): \[ -\frac{t^4}{4} + C = -\frac{\cos^4 x}{4} + C \] ### Step 5: Final answer Thus, the integral \( \int \cos^3 x \sin x \, dx \) is: \[ -\frac{\cos^4 x}{4} + C \] ### Summary of the solution: \[ \int \cos^3 x \sin x \, dx = -\frac{\cos^4 x}{4} + C \]
