Int (e^cost)(sin2t)dt Ahhh!

Homework Statement


First make a substitution and then use integration by parts


Homework Equations


INTEGRAL OF (e^cost)(sin2t)dt


The Attempt at a Solution



the 2t is bothering me.

try subbing u=e^cost

thank you.

I would not use e^cos t. I would use the trig identity, sin(2t)= 2sin(t)cos(t) so that the integral became [itex]2\int e^{cos(t)}cos(t)sin(t)dt[/itex] and use the substitution u= cos(t), then integration by parts.
