We can derive reduction formula for the integration of the form \(\int \sin ^{n} x d x, \int \cos ^{n} x d x, \int \tan ^{n} x d x\)and other integrals of these form using integration by parts. In turn these reduction formulas can be used to compute integrals of higher power of sin x and cos x.
If \(\int \sin ^{5} x d x=-\frac{1}{5}\)sin4x cos x + A sin2x cos x \(-\frac{8}{15}\)cos x + c then A is equal to
  1. \(-\frac{2}{15}\)
  2. \(-\frac{3}{5}\)
  3. \(-\frac{4}{15}\)
  4. \(-\frac{1}{15}\)

Answer

(C) - 4 15
