Why should the result of the substitution be inserted into integration by parts?

LIATE suggests which factor to differentiate (assign to $u$) based on the order: Logarithmic, Inverse trigonometric, Algebraic, Trigonometric, Exponential. However, it is not an absolute rule.

Conditions: The integrand involves a product of functions from different LIATE categories.; The user is selecting $u$ and $dv$ for integration by parts.

The factor $x^3$ is grouped with $\sqrt{1+x^4}$ because the derivative of the inner function $1+x^4$ is $4x^3$. This presence of $x^3$ makes the expression $x^3\sqrt{1+x^4}$ directly integrable using substitution, which is a prerequisite for the integration by parts method.

Conditions: The integrand is $x^7\sqrt{1+x^4}$.; The method involves integration by parts.; The term $dv$ must be integrable.

Rewriting the integrand separates it into a factor suitable for differentiation and a factor suitable for integration. Choosing $x^4$ for differentiation reduces its power, while the remaining factor $x^3\sqrt{1+x^4}$ becomes integrable via substitution because its derivative contains the necessary $x^3$ term.

Conditions: The integrand is $x^7\sqrt{1+x^4}$.; Integration by parts is the chosen method.; A substitution is available for the second factor.

Integration by parts replaces an integral of $u \, dv$ with $uv$ minus an integral of $v \, du$. The goal is to choose factors that make the new integral easier to evaluate.

Conditions: The integrand can be expressed as a product of two functions.; The chosen factors $u$ and $dv$ must be differentiable and integrable respectively.

The final antiderivative is $\frac{e^x(\sin x + \cos x)}{2} + C$. This result is obtained by solving the algebraic equation formed when the original integral reappears after two rounds of integration by parts.

Conditions: The function integrated is $e^x \cos x$.; The constant of integration $C$ is included.; The algebraic solution for the recurring integral is correct.
