Homework Statement
Find
\int\frac{\cos y}{\sqrt(a-y)}\,dy
The attempt at a solution
Let U = cos y and dV = \frac{1}{\sqrt(a-y)}
I get: cosy.-2√(a-y) - 2∫√(a-y).siny.dy
So, again, i use partial integration:
Let U = siny and let dV = [-2(a-y)^(3/2)]/3
I get: siny.[-2(a-y)^(3/2)]/3 + (2/3)∫[(a-y)^(3/2)].cosy.dy
But the cycle is endless. I need to get the answer 2siny.
