Hey guys, Im stuck on a problem on my C4 practise paper. It's an integration question. I've got like 2 pages fo working, but I jsut can't do it.

Could you guys, not solve it exactly, but give me a tip of where to start off?

It is:

I'm assuming you use integration by parts, but I just can't get it.

Thanks for the help

U-substitution. If you need a bigger nudge bump me.

Oops, what level calc are you in? It might be better to do integration by parts.

I've learn normal substitution, and by integration parts, Im an A Level standard.

Parts is ugly with this, and I always tend to use substitution as a last resort.

Use the identity:

Hey man, thanks for the help, I knew it must have been a formula, but we wern't taught these directly in our course, but I'll make sure I do learn them.

Thanks

Are you on edexcel? If so then that identity is on page 119 of C3 (Heinemann Modular Textbook).

Yeah Edexcel, but we use a Pearsons/Longman A2 core book for it. ITs in there, we just never got tought it properly.

Ahh ok. I think we get given it in the formula booklet anyway.
