    help me with this further integration q pls

    du=-\sin x\ \!dx \therefore\textstyle\int\sin^3x\ \!dx=\int-\sin^2x(-\sin x\ \!dx)=\int(\cos^2x-1)(-\sin x\ \!dx) \textstyle=\int(u^2-1)\ \!du=\frac{u^3}{3}-u+c=\frac{\cos^3x}{3}-\cos x+c

    Here is a quicker way using beta and gamma functions \textstyle I_{2n}=\frac{1}{2}B(n+\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{2}B(n-\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2})\cdot\frac{n-\frac{1}{2}}{n-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{2n-1}{2n}I_{2n-2} \textstyle...
