Was just double checking if we can simplify this in the following way,
∫ sinx * √(1 + cos2x) dx = ∫ sinx * (1 + cosx) dx
∫ sinx * √(1 + cos2x) dx = ∫ sinx * (1 + cosx) dx

To simplify a trigonometric product, you can use trigonometric identities such as the product-to-sum and sum-to-product identities. These allow you to rewrite the product as a sum or difference of trigonometric functions, which can then be simplified further.
No, not all trigonometric products can be simplified. It depends on the specific trigonometric functions involved and their arguments. Some products may already be in their simplest form and cannot be simplified any further.
The main purpose of simplifying a trigonometric product is to make it easier to work with in mathematical calculations. Simplifying can also help reveal any patterns or relationships between different trigonometric functions.
A trigonometric product is considered simplified when it cannot be further reduced using any known trigonometric identities or rules. This means that all common factors have been factored out and any remaining terms cannot be combined or simplified any further.
One useful tip for simplifying a trigonometric product is to always check for common factors that can be factored out. It is also helpful to familiarize yourself with common trigonometric identities and their applications in simplifying products. Practice and experience can also improve your ability to simplify trigonometric products efficiently.
