1. **State the problem:** Evaluate the integral $$\int 20 \sin^2 x \cos^2 x \, dx$$.
2. **Use a trigonometric identity:** Recall that $$\sin^2 x \cos^2 x = \left(\sin x \cos x\right)^2 = \left(\frac{1}{2} \sin 2x\right)^2 = \frac{1}{4} \sin^2 2x$$.
3. **Rewrite the integral:**
$$\int 20 \sin^2 x \cos^2 x \, dx = \int 20 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \sin^2 2x \, dx = \int 5 \sin^2 2x \, dx$$.
4. **Use the power-reduction formula:**
$$\sin^2 \theta = \frac{1 - \cos 2\theta}{2}$$.
Apply this with $$\theta = 2x$$:
$$\sin^2 2x = \frac{1 - \cos 4x}{2}$$.
5. **Substitute into the integral:**
$$\int 5 \sin^2 2x \, dx = \int 5 \cdot \frac{1 - \cos 4x}{2} \, dx = \frac{5}{2} \int (1 - \cos 4x) \, dx$$.
6. **Integrate term-by-term:**
$$\int 1 \, dx = x$$
$$\int \cos 4x \, dx = \frac{\sin 4x}{4}$$
So,
$$\frac{5}{2} \int (1 - \cos 4x) \, dx = \frac{5}{2} \left(x - \frac{\sin 4x}{4}\right) + C = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{5}{8} \sin 4x + C$$.
7. **Final answer:**
$$\int 20 \sin^2 x \cos^2 x \, dx = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{5}{8} \sin 4x + C$$.
