## DHASHNI Group Title why integral of( sin x )=-(cos x) ? and how? 2 years ago 2 years ago

1. waterineyes

What is the derivative of cosx??

2. DHASHNI

- sin x

3. waterineyes

Or you can say that the derivative of -cosx is sinx... Now integral is just reverse of derivative.. So whose sinx is derivative of which quantity???

4. waterineyes

|dw:1342100312222:dw|

5. waterineyes

Or you can use Euler's Identities to prove it...

6. waterineyes

$\large \sin \theta = \frac{e^{i \theta} - e^{-i \theta}}{2i}$ $\large \cos \theta = \frac{e^{i \theta} + e^{-i \theta}}{2}$ Find the integral of sin theta you will get -cos theta..

7. estudier

Other possibilities are to integrate the Taylor Series for Sin x on some interval or from first principles as here http://www.math.com/tables/derivatives/more/trig.htm

8. lgbasallote

a good thing to remember is the integral of a cofunction is alsways negative that explains the negative sign

9. across

lmao she has no clue how to integrate $$\sin$$ and there's people suggesting she use Euler's identity, hahaha.

10. DHASHNI

thanks to every one i got the ans!!!!!!

11. waterineyes

She has clue how to integrate but she is asking why?? and mind your language @across

12. across

@DHASHNI, this follows from the differentiation of the trigonometric functions:$\sin x\implies\cos x\\\cos x\implies-\sin x\\-\sin x\implies-\cos x\\-\cos x\implies\sin x\\$

13. waterineyes

@across prove them...

14. across

I can Google you a proof in less than five seconds. I don't have to prove anything to you.

15. waterineyes

That is what she is asking... Google??? What else you can do...

16. DHASHNI

@across : i knw the formulas ....... i jus wanna know how integral sinx is (-cos x)........the proof for that~

17. lgbasallote

here's another fun proof $\int sinx dx$ let u = cosx du = -sin x dx -du = sinxdx $\implies\int -du$ $\implies -\int du$ $\implies -u$ $\implies -\sin x$

18. waterineyes

Now did you get what she said @across .. If you don't know how to prove them then do not make fun of anybody...

19. across

OH, she wants the PROOF. For all we know, the title may have suggested a geometric interpretation.

20. waterineyes

I think a word known as WHY is sufficient for all the things...

21. DHASHNI

LOL
