This is a direct application of the First Fundamental Theorem of Integral Calculus (Theorem 9.1): differentiating an integral with variable upper limit simply substitutes xx for the dummy variable in the integrand.

Step 1. Identify the form. f(x)=∫0xtcos⁡t dtf(x)=\displaystyle\int_0^x t\cos t\,dt is exactly the form F(x)=∫axg(u) duF(x)=\int_a^x g(u)\,du with a=0a=0 and integrand g(t)=tcos⁡tg(t)=t\cos t (continuous everywhere).

Step 2. Apply Theorem 9.1 (First Fundamental Theorem). For F(x)=∫axg(u) duF(x)=\displaystyle\int_a^x g(u)\,du with gg continuous, ddxF(x)=g(x)\dfrac{d}{dx}F(x)=g(x).

Step 3. Substitute xx into the integrand. Replacing the dummy variable tt by xx in g(t)=tcos⁡tg(t)=t\cos t gives

dfdx=xcos⁡x.\frac{df}{dx}=x\cos x. …
