CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. sin⁡2xcos⁡2x=sin⁡22x4=1−cos⁡4x8\sin^{2} x\cos^{2} x = \frac{\sin^{2} 2x}{4} = \frac{1 - \cos 4x}{8}.

  2. ∫1−cos⁡4x8 dx=x8−sin⁡4x32+C\int \frac{1 - \cos 4x}{8}\,dx = \frac{x}{8} - \frac{\sin 4x}{32} + C.

Worth noting

A plus sign comes from cos⁡2\cos^{2}, not sin⁡2\sin^{2}: sin⁡22x=1−cos⁡4x2\sin^{2} 2x = \frac{1 - \cos 4x}{2}.
