$sin^2x cos2x dx

Right this is the problem,
see my scanned paper.

Your result in green is correct. Is this confirmation the reason for your post? I don't see any question.

 
They right answer should be the green, but I didnt get there, if someone could help me get there i would really b grateful
 
\(\displaystyle \int sin^2(x).cos(2x) dx\)

we know:

\(\displaystyle sin^2(x)\ = \ \frac{1-cos(2x)}{2}\)

and

\(\displaystyle cos^2(2x)\ = \ \frac{1+ cos(4x)}{2}\)

then

\(\displaystyle \int sin^2(x).cos(2x) dx\)

\(\displaystyle = \ \int \frac{1-cos(2x)}{2} \cdot cos(2x) dx\)

\(\displaystyle = \ \frac{1}{2}\int [cos(2x) \ - \ cos^2(2x)] dx\)

\(\displaystyle = \ \frac{1}{4}sin(2x) \ - \frac{1}{2}\int [cos^2(2x)] dx\)

\(\displaystyle = \ \frac{1}{4}sin(2x) \ - \frac{1}{2}\int \frac{1+ cos(4x)}{2} dx\)

Continue and finish it.....
