Homework Statement




Can anyone help me integrating (cosecx)^3 without using integration by parts?

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



i couldn't get a clue how to do it,i used fundamental identity but always ended up like

[∫(cosecx) dx] + [(∫(cotx)^2 . (cosecx) dx]


the left one will be simply reciprocal rule,but what about [(∫(cotx)^2 . (cosecx) dx] ??

There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
