how to solve integrals of trig functions?

please help me solve the integral, it involves substitution: ∫ csc^2 4x cot4x dx, let u = cot4x

reads as: integral of cosecant 4x squared (multiplied by) cotangent 4x dx, let u equal cotangent 4x

    ∫ csc^2 4x cot 4x dx

    Let u = cot 4x

    then du = - csc^2 4x • 4 dx

    so (-1/4) du = csc^2 x dx

    (-1/4) ∫ u du = (-1/8) u^2 + C = (-1/8) cot^2 4x + C

    ∫ csc^2( 4x) cot (4x) dx

    let cot(4x) = u

    = - 4 csc^2(4x) dx = du

    csc^2(4x) dx = - du/4

    now the integral becomes

    - 1/4 ∫ u du

    = -(1/8 ) u^2 + C

    back substitute u = cot(4x)

    = - (1/8) cot^2(4x) + C

    I = ∫ csc ² (4x) cot (4x) dx

    Let u = cot (4x)

    du/dx = - 4 csc ² (4x)

    - du/4 = csc ² (4x) dx

    I = (-1/4) ∫ u du

    I = (-1/8) u ² + C

    I = (-1/8) cot ² (4x) + C

    ∫cosec² 4x cot² 4x dx

    let u = cot 4x

    so, du = - 4 cosec² 4x dx

    ∫cosec² 4x cot² 4x dx

    =∫ (-u/4) du

    = (-1/4) (u²/2) + c

    = - [(cot² 4x)/8] +c

    ∫ csc²(4x) cot(4x) dx

    Let u = cot(4x) then du = -4csc²(4x) dx

    (-1/4) ∫ cot(4x) [-4csc²(4x) dx]

    (-1/4) ∫ u du

    (-1/4) u²/2

    (-1/4) cot²(4x) / 2

    (-1/8) cot²(4x) + C

    a million. ?(t² - sint) dt = ?t²dt - ?sintdt = t³/3 + value + C 2. ?sinxdx/(a million - sin²x) = ?d(cosx)/cos²x = -a million/cosx + C 3. ? dx/?(x) = ?x^(-a million/4)dx = (4/3)x^(3/4) + C = (4/3)?(x³) + C
