When page be open in rectangle type:

integrate sin(4x) cos^2(4x) dx
and click option =

After few seconds when you see result click option: Show steps

On wolframalpha dot com you can practice any kind of calculus.
Notice that the derivative of the power cos^2 (4x) shows up as multiple, so we can just reverse the chain rule

I know that it must be something like (cos 4x)^3....

so from y ' = sin 4x (cos 4x)^2
we get y = sin 4x (cos 4x)^3 (1/3) (-1/sin 4x) (1/4)
= (-1/12) cos^3 (4x) )

which if you had used brackets correctly would have been C>
