		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created page with &amp;quot;==Introduction== Let&amp;#039;s say we want to integrate  ::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int x^2e^{x^3}~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;  Here, we can compute this antiderivative by using  &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: 0px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;...&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;==Introduction==&lt;br /&gt;
Let's say we want to integrate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int x^2e^{x^3}~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here, we can compute this antiderivative by using &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: 0px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;u-&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;substitution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: 0px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;u-&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;substitution is an important integration technique, it will not help us evaluate all integrals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, consider the integral &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int xe^x~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is no substitution that will allow us to integrate this integral. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We need another integration technique called integration by parts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The formula for integration by parts comes from the product rule for derivatives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recall from the product rule, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(f(x)g(x))'=f'(x)g(x)+f(x)g'(x).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, we have &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f(x)g(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\int f'(x)g(x)+f(x)g'(x)~dx}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\int f'(x)g(x)~dx+\int f(x)g'(x)~dx.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we solve the last equation for the second integral, we obtain&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int f(x)g'(x)~dx = f(x)g(x)-\int f'(x)g(x)~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This formula is the formula for integration by parts. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, as it is currently stated, it is long and hard to remember. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we make a substitution to obtain a nicer formula. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;u=f(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp; and &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;dv=g'(x)~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;du=f'(x)~dx&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp; and &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;v=g(x).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Plugging these into our formula, we obtain&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int u~dv=uv-\int v~du.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Warm-Up==&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate the following integrals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''1)''' &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -7px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int xe^x~dx&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class = &amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
!Solution: &amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Using the Product Rule, we have &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=(x^2+x+1)(x^3+2x^2+4)'+(x^2+x+1)'(x^3+2x^2+4).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Then, using the Power Rule, we have &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=(x^2+x+1)(3x^2+4x)+(2x+1)(x^3+2x^2+4).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;NOTE:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; It is not necessary to use the Product Rule to calculate the derivative of this function. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|You can distribute the terms and then use the Power Rule.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|In this case, we have&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{(x^2+x+1)(x^3+2x^2+4)}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{x^2(x^3+2x^2+4)+x(x^3+2x^2+4)+1(x^3+2x^2+4)}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{x^5+2x^4+4x^2+x^4+2x^3+4x+x^3+2x^2+4} \\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{x^5+3x^4+3x^3+6x^2+4x+4.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Now, using the Power Rule, we get &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=5x^4+12x^3+9x^2+12x+4.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|In general, calculating derivatives in this way is tedious. It would be better to use the Product Rule.&lt;br /&gt;

!Final Answer: &amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=(x^2+x+1)(3x^2+4x)+(2x+1)(x^3+2x^2+4)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|or equivalently&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=x^5+3x^4+3x^3+6x^2+4x+4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''2)''' &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int x\cos (2x)~dx&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class = &amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
!Solution: &amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
Using the Quotient Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\frac{x(x^2+x^3)'-(x^2+x^3)(x)'}{x^2}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Then, using the Power Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\frac{x(2x+3x^2)-(x^2+x^3)(1)}{x^2}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;NOTE:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt; It is not necessary to use the Quotient Rule to calculate the derivative of this function.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|You can divide and then use the Power Rule.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|In this case, we have&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2+x^3}{x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2}{x}+\frac{x^3}{x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{x+x^2.} \\&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Now, using the Power Rule, we get&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=1+2x.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\sec^2 x}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\sec^2 x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Exercise 1 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -13px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int x^3 e^{-2x}~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, we need to know the derivative of &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: 0px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\csc x.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp; Recall&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\csc x =\frac{1}{\sin x}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, using the Quotient Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}(\csc x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}\bigg(\frac{1}{\sin x}\bigg)}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{\sin x (1)'-1(\sin x)'}{\sin^2 x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{\sin x (0)-\cos x}{\sin^2 x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{-\cos x}{\sin^2 x}} \\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{-\csc x \cot x.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using the Product Rule and Power Rule, we have &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{1}{x^2}(\csc x-4)'+\bigg(\frac{1}{x^2}\bigg)'(\csc x-4)}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{1}{x^2}(-\csc x \cot x+0)+(-2x^{-3})(\csc x-4)}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{-\csc x \cot x}{x^2}+\frac{-2(\csc x-4)}{x^3}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we have &lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\frac{-\csc x \cot x}{x^2}+\frac{-2(\csc x-4)}{x^3}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Exercise 2 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int e^{3x}\sin (2x)~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notice that the function &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;g(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp; is the product of three functions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We start by grouping two of the functions together. So, we have &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;g(x)=(2x\sin x)\sec x.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using the Product Rule, we get&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{g'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{(2x\sin x)(\sec x)'+(2x\sin x)'\sec x}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{(2x\sin x)(\tan^2 x)+(2x\sin x)'\sec x.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, we need to use the Product Rule again. So,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{g'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{2x\sin x\tan^2 x+(2x(\sin x)'+(2x)'\sin x)\sec x}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{2x\sin x\tan^2 x+(2x\cos x+2\sin x)\sec x.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we have &lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;g'(x)=2x\sin x\tan^2 x+(2x\cos x+2\sin x)\sec x.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, there is another way to do this problem. Notice&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{g(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{2x\sin x\sec x}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{2x\sin x\frac{1}{\cos x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{2x\tan x.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you would only need to use the Product Rule once instead of twice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Exercise 3 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -16px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int x\sec^2 x~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using the Quotient Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;h'(x)=\frac{(x^2\cos x+3)(x^2\sin x+1)'-(x^2\sin x+1)(x^2\cos x+3)'}{(x^2\cos x+3)^2}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, we need to use the Product Rule. So, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{h'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{(x^2\cos x+3)(x^2(\sin x)'+(x^2)'\sin x)-(x^2\sin x+1)(x^2(\cos x)'+(x^2)'\cos x)}{(x^2\cos x+3)^2}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{(x^2\cos x+3)(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)-(x^2\sin x+1)(-x^2\sin x+2x\cos x)}{(x^2\cos x+3)^2}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we get&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;h'(x)=\frac{(x^2\cos x+3)(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)-(x^2\sin x+1)(-x^2\sin x+2x\cos x)}{(x^2\cos x+3)^2}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Exercise 4 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate  &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int x\sqrt{x+1}~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, using the Quotient Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x (e^x)'-e^x(x^2\sin x)'}{(x^2\sin x)^2}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\sin x)'}{x^4\sin^2 x}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, we need to use the Product Rule. So, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2(\sin x)'+(x^2)'\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we have &lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Exercise 5 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate  &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int \frac{\ln x}{x^3}~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, using the Quotient Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x (e^x)'-e^x(x^2\sin x)'}{(x^2\sin x)^2}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\sin x)'}{x^4\sin^2 x}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, we need to use the Product Rule. So, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2(\sin x)'+(x^2)'\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we have &lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Exercise 6 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Evaluate  &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int \sin(2x)\cos(3x)~dx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, using the Quotient Rule, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x (e^x)'-e^x(x^2\sin x)'}{(x^2\sin x)^2}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\sin x)'}{x^4\sin^2 x}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, we need to use the Product Rule. So, we have&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{f'(x)} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2(\sin x)'+(x^2)'\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}.}&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, we have &lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x)=\frac{x^2\sin x e^x - e^x(x^2\cos x+2x\sin x)}{x^4\sin^2 x}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
