Not really sure where to begin on this integral. Hope this reads alright on here.

Integral of (sin (x))^1/2)(cos^3(x)) dx
 
Physics news on Phys.org
\int {\sqrt{sin(x)}} cos(x)^3 dx

Convert this into

\int {\sqrt{sin(x)}}cos^2(x)cos(x).

From your identities in trignometry

cos^2(x) = 1 - sin^2(x).

This will leave you with all sine terms and one cosine term once you rewrite cosine squared. Do you see what to do from here?

That was very helpful, thank you. Could I also get help with this one pls? :) I just seem to have a hard time figuring out where to start on these.

Use a substitution letting u = ln x.
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
