I am working through Signals and Systems Demystified on my own. I need to integrate:

[tex] \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}{sin(2t)e^{-|t|}e^{-j2\pi ft}} dt[/tex]

I first went about dealing with the absolute value sign by using the following

[tex] \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-|t|} dt = \int_{-\infty}^{0} e^{t} dt + \int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-t} dt[/tex]

Going along this route seems to not work and makes me think the expansion is incorrect. Can anyone give me a pointer?

Thanks,
Sam

The expansion is correct.
 
Use the decomposition you have now and do integration by parts twice (on each decomposed integral). I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
 
That worked. Thanks!
