Identify the functions from the table: let \( f(x) = e^x \) and \( g(x) = \cos x \). The table shows derivatives of \( f \) and integrals of \( g \) along with signs for tabular integration.
Use the tabular integration method to write \( \int e^x \cos x \, dx \) as the sum of products of \( f \) and integrals of \( g \) with alternating signs, plus the remaining integral. From the table, this gives:
\[ \int e^x \cos x \, dx = + e^x \sin x - e^x (-\cos x) + \int e^x (-\cos x) \, dx \]
Simplify the expression inside the integral and the sum of functions:
\[ \int e^x \cos x \, dx = e^x \sin x + e^x \cos x - \int e^x \cos x \, dx \]
Recognize that the integral \( \int e^x \cos x \, dx \) appears on both sides of the equation. To solve for it, add \( \int e^x \cos x \, dx \) to both sides to isolate the integral term.
Divide both sides of the resulting equation by 2 to solve explicitly for \( \int e^x \cos x \, dx \). This gives the integral in terms of elementary functions without any remaining integral.

Key Concepts
Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.
Tabular Integration Method
Tabular integration is a streamlined technique for repeated integration by parts, especially useful when differentiating one function repeatedly leads to a simple pattern. It involves creating a table of derivatives of one function and integrals of another, then combining these with alternating signs to find the integral efficiently.
Integration by parts is a fundamental technique based on the product rule for differentiation. It transforms the integral of a product of functions into simpler integrals, using the formula ∫u dv = uv - ∫v du. This method is essential for integrals involving products of exponential, trigonometric, or polynomial functions.
Solving Integral Equations Involving the Same Integral
Sometimes, applying integration by parts leads to an equation containing the original integral on both sides. Solving such equations involves algebraic manipulation to isolate the integral, allowing evaluation of integrals like ∫eˣ cos x dx, which recur during the integration process.
