u = sin2x
du/dx = 2cos2x

'' dx = 1/2cos2x du ''


sin²2x cos³2x

= sin²2x(cos2x)(cos²2x)

= sin²2x(cos2x)(1 - sin²2x)

= (sin²2x - sin⁴2x)cos2x

= (u² - u⁴)cos²x




∫ sin²2x cos³2x dx

= ∫ (u² - u⁴)cos2x (1/2cos2x) du

= ½ ∫ (u² - u⁴) du

= ½ (⅓u³ - 1/5 u^5) + C

= 1/6 sin³2x - 1/10 sin^5(2x) + C

Actually there is no need for substitution in this question as the term is directly integrable.

(sin²2x - sin⁴2x)(cos2x)

= sin²2x cos2x - sin⁴2x cos 2x


cos 2x is the derivative of ½sin2x so it's just doing the reverse of chain rule.


Another way to see :

sub u = sin2x, du/dx = 2 cos2x,

sin²2x cos2x - sin⁴2x cos 2x

= ½ u² du/dx - ½ u⁴ du/dx

= 1/6 (3u² du/dx) - 1/10 (5u⁴ du/dx)

Basically implicit differentiation is done and integration just gives the original expression

Question already stated that you use method of substitution. The tricky part maybe the du/dx.
