Answer

$$ \frac{1}{a}x\sinh ax- \frac{1}{a^2}\cosh ax+c$$

Work Step by Step

Given $$\int x\cosh ax dx $$ Let \begin{align*} u&=x\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ dv=\cosh ax\\ u&= dx\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ dv= \frac{1}{a}\sinh ax \end{align*} Then using integration by parts \begin{align*} \int x\cosh ax dx &=uv-\int vdu\\ &= \frac{1}{a}x\sinh ax- \frac{1}{a}\int \sinh axdx\\ &= \frac{1}{a}x\sinh ax- \frac{1}{a^2}\cosh ax+c \end{align*}
