Answer
.
Method 1: integrate the exponential first
Let and . Parts gives . A second parts step gives . Therefore , so and .
How did this part go?
Method 2: integrate cosine first
Parts gives . Taking the corresponding second parts route gives . Thus . Collecting the returning integral yields , and the same final antiderivative follows.
How did this part go?
Common mistakes
The reappearing integral must be moved to the left rather than integrated repeatedly without end.
