integral of 1/(x^2)cos(1/x)

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2}} cos (\frac{1}{x}) d x

- sin (\frac{1}{x}) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2}} cos (\frac{1}{x}) d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int - cos (u) d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= - \int cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int cos (u) d u = sin (u)

= - sin (u)

Substitute back

u = \frac{1}{x}

= - sin (\frac{1}{x})

Add a constant to the solution

= - sin (\frac{1}{x}) + C
