Answer

$\int x\sin xdx=\sin x - x\cos x + C$

Work Step by Step

Let $\frac{d}{dx}(\sin x - x\cos x)$ Using product rule: $\frac{d}{dx}(\sin x - x\cos x)= \cos x - [x(-\sin x) +\cos x] $ Simplify: $\frac{d}{dx}(\sin x - x\cos x)= \cos x +x\sin x - \cos x=x\sin x$ Thus, a corresponding integration formula is $\int x\sin x dx=\sin x - x\cos x + C$
