Solving Non-homogeneous ODE's: Method of Undetermined Coefficients Part 4
Let's work through another example on how to solve non-homogeneous 2nd order differential equations. This is our final example before we look at practical applications of this method of solving ODE's.

[DTube] Integral of ∫cos^4(x)dx using the Reduction Formula
In this video, we work through the process of solving the integral of ∫cos^4(x)dx. The main aim is to reduce the power down to unity. We can do this either by using the half-angle formula like so... cos^4(x)
