List of integrals of trigonometric functions

The following is a list of integrals (antiderivative functions) of trigonometric functions. For antiderivatives involving both exponential and trigonometric functions, see List of integrals of exponential functions. For a complete list of antiderivative functions, see Lists of integrals. For the special antiderivatives involving trigonometric functions, see Trigonometric integral.

Generally, if the function $\sin(x)$ is any trigonometric function, and $\cos(x)$ is its derivative,

$\int a\cos nx\;\mathrm{d}x = \frac{a}{n}\sin nx+C$

In all formulas the constant a is assumed to be nonzero, and C denotes the constant of integration.
