Note that the first method can be used to find the integral of any function of the form:f(x) = x(2n-1) (axn+b)kfor any positive integer n and any real number k (where k is not -1) as the following examples show:
In all of the first three examples, we let:u = 2x+ 4and so:du = 2dx → dx = du/2andx = (u - 4)/2
In the fourth example, we let:u = 2x2+ 4and so:du = 4xdx → dx = du/4xandx2 = (u - 4)/2
In the fifth example, we let:u = 2x3+ 4and so:du = 6x2dx → dx = du/6x2andx3 = (u - 4)/2
The double angle formulas can simplify these problems, by replacing cos2x by (1+cos2x)/2 and sin2x by (1- cos2x)/2
