#= 1/2 x^2 sin(x^2) + 1/2cos(x^2) + C#

#int x^3cos(x^2)#

#int x^2 . x cos(x^2)#

#= int x^2 d/dx (1/2 sin(x^2))#

ready for IBP
#= 1/2 x^2 sin(x^2) - 1/2 int d/dx (x^2) sin(x^2)#

#= 1/2 x^2 sin(x^2) - int x sin(x^2)#

#= 1/2 x^2 sin(x^2) - int d/dx ( - 1/2cos(x^2))#

#= 1/2 x^2 sin(x^2) + 1/2cos(x^2) + C#
