Problem

Let g(x)g(x) be any differentiable function of xx. (i) Prove that ddx[cos⁡g(x)]=−g′(x) sin⁡g(x).\dfrac{d}{dx}\bigl[\cos g(x)\bigr]= - g'(x)\,\sin g(x). (ii) Using the result of part (i), evaluate ∫4x3 sin⁡(x4+5) dx.\displaystyle \int 4x^{3}\,\sin\bigl(x^{4}+5\bigr)\,dx. (iii) Differentiate your answer to part (ii) to verify that it is indeed an antiderivative of the given integrand.
