Corollary to Primitive of Cosine Function
- $\ds \int \cos a x \rd x = \frac {\sin a x} a + C$
where $a$ is a non-zero constant.
Proof
| \(\ds \int \cos x \rd x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \sin x + C\) | Primitive of $\cos x$ | |||||||||||
| \(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \int \cos a x \rd x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \frac 1 a \paren {\sin a x} + C\) | Primitive of Function of Constant Multiple | ||||||||||
| \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \frac {\sin a x} a + C\) | simplifying |
$\blacksquare$
