Show answer and solution

Correct option: A

Solution

Use integration by parts twice. Let I = ∫cos(ln x)dx.

First IBP: u = cos(ln x), dv = dx → I = x·cos(ln x) + ∫sin(ln x)dx.

Second IBP on ∫sin(ln x)dx: u = sin(ln x), dv = dx → ∫sin(ln x)dx = x·sin(ln x) - ∫cos(ln x)dx = x·sin(ln x) - I.

Substituting back: I = x·cos(ln x) + x·sin(ln x) - I, so 2I = x[cos(ln x) + sin(ln x)], giving I = (x/2)[cos(ln x) + sin(ln x)] + C.
