Problem 4.187 · easy
Find \( \displaystyle \int \sin{\left(x \right)} + \cos{\left(x \right)} \, dx \). (Omit the constant of integration.)
- \[ \int \left(\sin{\left(x \right)} + \cos{\left(x \right)}\right)\, dx \]integralStart with the integral of the function.✓ Proved
- \[ = \int \sin{\left(x \right)}\, dx + \int \cos{\left(x \right)}\, dx \]linearitySplit the integral into two parts using linearity.✓ Proved
- \[ = \sin{\left(x \right)} - \cos{\left(x \right)} \]antiderivativeCompute the antiderivative of each term.✓ Proved
Answer \( \sin{\left(x \right)} - \cos{\left(x \right)} + C \)
✓ Nihil obstat Every line of this solution was proved by the computer algebra system SymPy. The answer was also checked a second way, without looking at the solution. Reviewers found nothing wrong with the explanation.

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate
method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence,
not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by
gemma4:26b, checked 2026-09-29 with SymPy 1.14.0.
