Evaluate each of the following indefinite integrals, using the provided hints.

  1. Evaluate ∫arctan⁡(x) dx\int \arctan(x) \, dx by using integration by parts with the substitution u=arctan⁡(x)u = \arctan(x) and dv=1 dxdv = 1 \, dx.

  2. Evaluate ∫ln⁡(z) dz\int \ln(z) \,dz. Consider a similar substitution to the one in (a).

  3. Use the substitution z=t2z = t^2 to transform the integral ∫t3sin⁡(t2) dt\int t^3 \sin(t^2) \, dt to a new integral in the variable zz, and evaluate that new integral by parts.

  4. Evaluate ∫s5es3 ds\int s^5 e^{s^3} \, ds using an approach similar to that described in (c).

  5. Evaluate ∫e2tcos⁡(et) dt\int e^{2t} \cos(e^t) \, dt. You will find it helpful to note that e2t=et⋅ete^{2t} = e^t \cdot e^t.
