Having trouble with the following integrations. Explanations are neccesary please as I have worked solutions, but don't quite understand them (from TERRY LEE 7th Edition page 98, Ex 4.7).

Q 3 (f) Integrate eaxcos(bx) with respect to x.

Q 3 (h) Integrate exsin2x with respect to x.

My solution for (f)
eax(bsin[bx]-acos[bx]) / (a2+b2) +C

Terry Lee's solution for (f)
eax(bsin[bx]+acos[bx]) / (a2+b2) +C

My solution for (h)
ex(5sin2x+2sinxcosx-2) +C

Terry Lee's solution for (h)
[ex(sin2x-2sinxcosx+2)]/5 +C

I'm getting the numbers and symbols wrong. Hopefully I'm on the right track and it is simply errors giving the incorrect solution. But I doubt it.

If need be, I can post up my working.

Cheers y'all.

you answers for both f and h are not entirely different from terry lees answers, maybe u differentiate cosx or sinx which produced a different sign or maybe you just missed a negative or positive sign.

just check over your working

It just seems like you have made some 'silly mistakes'. With practice they will go away.

for f) if u let u = cos(bx) v' = e^ax

it works fine, there is no point me putting up solution

Indeed.

Cheers for the clear working out. It makes perfect sense and I realise I have simply made silly errors (which are not so simple to erase).
