Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( e^{\frac{x - 1}{x}} + c \)
Explanation:

Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( - 2 \sqrt{x} \cos{\left(\sqrt{x} \right)} + 2 \sin{\left(\sqrt{x} \right)} + c \)
Explanation:
1. Put √x = t, so dx = 2t dt.
2. The integral is 2∫t sin t dt = 2(sin t - t cos t).
3. Result = 2(sin √x - √x cos √x).
4. Differentiating this result returns the integrand, so option (a) is correct.

Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( \log{\left(\left|{\frac{x}{x + \cos{\left(x \right)}}}\right| \right)} + c \)
Explanation:
1. d/dx[(x + cos x)/x] = -(cos x + x sin x)/x².
2. Hence d/dx log[(x + cos x)/x] = -(cos x + x sin x)/(x(x + cos x)).

Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( \frac2n\sin nx \)
Explanation:
