Let t=xt=\sqrt x, so x=t2x=t^2, dx=2t dtdx=2t\,dt:

∫cos⁡x dx=∫cos⁡t⋅2t dt=2∫tcos⁡t dt\int\cos\sqrt x\,dx=\int\cos t\cdot2t\,dt=2\int t\cos t\,dt

By parts: u=tu=t, dv=cos⁡t dt⇒v=sin⁡tdv=\cos t\,dt\Rightarrow v=\sin t.

∫tcos⁡t dt=tsin⁡t−∫sin⁡t dt=tsin⁡t+cos⁡t\int t\cos t\,dt=t\sin t-\int\sin t\,dt=t\sin t+\cos t …
