Integration by Substitution of $cos(log(x))$












0












$begingroup$


I need to find the indefinite integral:
$int cos(log(x)) dx$.



I've tried using u-substitution, setting $u=log(x)$. Then I get:
$int cos(u)du$, where $du$ is $frac{1}{x}dx$.



The worked solutions I can see put an $e^u$ in there as well, and I'm not really sure why. How should I go about solving this problem?



Thanks for your time.

          Let $ln x=uimplies x=e^u,dx=e^u du$



          $$intcos(ln x)dx=int e^ucos u du $$



          Now use Integration of $e^{ax}cos bx$ and $e^{ax}sin bx$

          Better way:



          Recall that $$cos x=frac{e^{ix}+e^{-ix}}2$$
          So $$cos log x=frac{e^{ilog x}+e^{-ilog x}}2=frac{x^i+x^{-i}}2$$
          And hence
          $$intcoslog x,mathrm dx=frac12left[frac1{1+i}x^{1+i}+frac{1}{1-i}x^{1-i}right]+C$$
          Then using $$sin x=frac{e^{ix}-e^{-ix}}{2i}$$
          We have that $$intcoslog x,mathrm dx=frac{x}2[coslog x+sinlog x]+C$$
