Answer:

\frac{x}{8}-\frac{\sin(4x)}{32}+C

Step-by-step explanation:

[Most of the work here comes from manipulating the trig to make the term (integrand) integrable.]

Recall that we can express the squared trig functions in terms of cos(2x). That is,

\cos(2x)=2\cos^2x-1 \\ \cos(2x)=1 - 2\sin^2x.

And so inverting these,

\cos^2x=\frac{1}{2} (1+\cos2x) \\ \sin^2x=\frac{1}{2} (1-\cos2x).

Multiply them together to obtain an equivalent expression for sin^2(x)cos^2(x) in terms of cos(2x).

\sin^2x \cdot \cos^2x =\frac{1}{2} (1-\cos2x) \cdot \frac{1}{2} (1+\cos2x) = \frac{1}{4}(1-\cos^2(2x)).

Notice we have cos^2(2x) in the integrand now. We've made it worse! Let's try plugging back in to the first identity for cos^2(2x).

\cos(2x)=2\cos^2x-1 \Rightarrow \cos(4x)=2\cos^2(2x)-1 \Rightarrow \cos^2(2x) = \frac{1}{2}(1+\cos(4x))

So then,

\sin^2x \cdot \cos^2x = \frac{1}{4}(1-\cos^2(2x)) = \frac{1}{4}(1-\frac{1}{2}(1+\cos(4x))) = \frac{1}{4}(1-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\cos(4x))=\frac{1}{8}(1-\cos(4x)).

This is now integrable (phew),

\int \sin^2x\cos^2x \ dx = \int \frac{1}{8}(1-\cos(4x)) \ dx = \frac{1}{8} \int (1-\cos(4x)) \ dx = \frac{1}{8}(x-\frac{1}{4}\sin(4x))+C.

Sum : (5 x+1)

Term : 1, 5x and 3y

Product : 9(5x+1),5x and 3y

Factor : 5 and x, 3 and y, 9 and 5x+1

Quotient : \frac{9(5x+1)}{3y}

Coefficient : 5 is the coefficient of x and 3 is the coefficient of y.

Explanation:

The expression is \frac{9(5x+1)}{3y}

Sum: Sum is the result of addition of terms.

Thus, from the expression,

Sum = (5 x+1)

Term : A term is a single number or a variable or a number multiplied with a variable.

Thus, from the expression,

Term = 1, 5x and 3y

Product : Product is the result of multiplication of numbers.

Thus, from the expression,

Product = 9(5x+1),5x and 3y

Factor : The numbers that are multiplied is called a factor.

Thus, from the expression,

Factor = 5 and x, 3 and y, 9 and 5x+1

Quotient : Quotient is the result of dividing two numbers or variables.

Thus, the given whole expression is a quotient.

Hence, Quotient = \frac{9(5x+1)}{3y}

Coefficient : Coefficient of a variable is a number multiplied with a variable.

Thus, from the expression,

Coefficient : 5 is the coefficient of x and 3 is the coefficient of y.
