- Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
- Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:

- Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
- Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
- If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

multiply integrand into (sinx)^2 -xsin(x) and separate to
$\int \sin^2(x)dx-\int x\sin(x)dx$
imabot01
use integration by parts on the xsin(x) and transform the (sinx)^2 by double angle for cos then integrate
apply the limits of integration when done
the answer is like
$\frac{1}{2}x - \frac{1}{4}\sin(2x) + x\cos(x) - \sin(x) + C]_{0}^{2022\pi}$

i think
no it's sin(sin(x) - x), not sin(x)(sin(x) - x)
if you graph the function you can find a very nice symmetry
Hint: sin(sin(x) - x) is π-antiperiodic.
A function f(x) is P-antiperiodic if f(x + P) = -f(x). There are two consequences of that:
- f(x) is 2P-periodic.
- If f(x) is integrable over any interval of length equal to its period, that integral will be 0.
