Homework Statement


Hi, I have to solve the following differential equation and while I can get the complimentary function I can't get the particular integral.

y'+30y=20sin(alpha*t)+alpha*cos(alpha*t)


Homework Equations



How do I integrate the product of e^30t and alpha*cos(alpha*t) in order to find the particular integral?

The Attempt at a Solution



I've got y=Ce^(-30t) as the complimentary function but can get no further. Any help would be brilliant, thanks!

Integrate by parts

u=e-30t

dv=20sin(αt)+αcos(αt) dt
 
Thanks, yeah I've been trying to do it by parts for the last little while but it get's very messy, very quickly whenever I have to integrate by parts twice. I'm rubbish at calculus, I end up with the same solution but it's obviously even near being correct.
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
