Question

Obtain the integral ∫ (sin 2x)/(sin x) dx.
Options
A (cos² 2x)/2
B ln(cos 2x)
C 2 sin x
Correct Answer
D sin 2x
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Use the double angle identity for sine: sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x.Substitute this into the integral:∫ (2 sin x cos x) / (sin x) dxCancel out sin x (assuming sin x ≠ 0, which is handled by the integration domain):= ∫ 2 cos x dxIntegrate 2 cos x:= 2 sin x + C.

Hint

Apply a trigonometric identity to simplify the integrand before integrating.
