dx
If we turn around to integrate, though the general concept has not been introduced, we have
dy = (8x + 5)dx (1.4)
Z Z

Z
dy = +

y = 4x + 5x (1.5)

From the result, we see that we have a function looking almost like the initial function y = 4x2 + 5x + 7.
So, it is obvious that integration is a process of anti-differentiation.
As such, for dy = (8x + 5)dx, a more comprehensive result would be y = 4x2 + 5x + c, where c
is the arbitrary constant. In order to get the actual constant, more information would be required.
For instance, given dy = (8x + 5)dx and y(0) = 7, we will obtain c = 7 and then we would have
y = 4x2 + 5x + 7 as given initially.
where F (a) and F (b) are the values of the integral of f (x) evaluated at the integral limits a and b. The
arbitrary constant cancels out in the process of substituting a and b.
where f (x) is the integrand, F (x) is the integral and c is the arbitrary constant.

In trying to evaluate x
dx using the previous method, we have

1 + 1
x0

The method is not helpful because the result is undefined. However, thinking of integration as anti-
differentiation, we see that
d 1
(ln x) = (3.3)
dx x
following the principle that
d f 0 (x)
[ln f (x)] = . (3.4)
dx f (x)
d
Since dx
(ln x) = x1 , we can have
1
dx = d(ln x) (3.5)
Z x Z
1
dx = d(ln x)
x
= ln x + c (3.6)

R
So, it is obvious that x
dx = ln x + c.
On a general note,
f 0 (x)
Z
dx = ln f (x) + c (3.7)

To evaluate Z
sin2 xdx
we have to use our knowledge of trigonometry since there is no direct solution. We have to recall that
cos 2x =
cos(x + x) (4.5)
cos 2x cos x cos x sin x sin x
=
cos 2x cos2 x sin2 x
=
cos 2x (1 sin2 x) sin2 x
=
cos 2x 1 sin2 x sin2 x

sin2 x = cos 2x (4.6)

Now, we perform the integration,

sin xdx = cos 2x dx (4.7)
2 2
Z Z

Recall that

p+q pq
sin p sin q = 2 cos sin (4.10)
2 2
p+q pq
cos p + cos q = 2 cos cos (4.11)
2 2
p+q pq
cos p cos q = 2 sin sin (4.12)
2 2
We need one of the relationships above to evaluate
Z
sin 2x cos xdx

Comparing the Left Hand Side with sin 2x cos x, have
p+q

Solving (4.15) and (4.16) simulataneously, we have
p = 3x; q=x
and

5 Integration by Substitution
Sometimes, in order to integrate certain functions, we will have to make substitutions. Such substitutions
can be algebraic or trigonometric. In algebraic subsitution, we replace an expression with an alphabet.
On the other hand, an alphabet is replaced with a trigonometric ratio when we perform trigonometric
substitution.

6 Integration by Parts
Occasions arise when we have to integrate the product of two functions and the techniques we have
learnt so far may not be applicable. In such cases, we can integrate by parts as we will soon find out.
The formula for integration by parts arises from the Product Rule technique in differential calculus as
follows: Given
y = uv (6.1)
where y = y(x); u = u(x); = v(x),
dy dv du
=u +v (6.2)
dx dx dx
Multiplying through by dx, we can progress as follows
dy = udv + vdu (6.3)
Z Z Z
dy = udv + vdu
Z Z
y = udv + vdu
Z Z
uv = udv + vdu
Z Z
udv = uv vdu (6.4)
11
Equation (6.4) is the required formula for the integration of functions by parts. To integrate by parts,
we have to identify a part of the function u, which should be more easily differentiable (and probably
goes to a constant after a degree of differentiation) than the second part dv, which should be integrable.
After identifying u, dv and obtaining du and v, we substitute using the formula. The process continues
until part integration is no longer necessary.
6.1 Examples
In order to evaluate Z
I= x2 sin xdx
Z
I = uv vdu
Z
2
I = x ( cos x) ( cos x) 2xdx
Z
2
I = x cos x + 2 x cos xdx
Since Z
I1 = x cos xdx
cannot be integrated directly, we repeat the process by taking u = x du = dx and dv = cos xdx
v = sin x + c and then
Z
I1 = uv vdu
Z
I1 = x sin x sin xdx
I1 = x sin x ( cos x) + c
I1 = x sin x + cos x + c (6.6)
Considering Z
I= e2x cos xdx
it is not very clear the choices of u and dv to make but we can make a try with u = e2x du = 2e2x dx
and dv = cos xdx v = sin x + c and then
12
Z
I = uv vdu
Z
I = e sin x sin x 2e2x dx
2x
Z
I = e sin x 2 e2x sin xdx
2x
Z
I1 = e cos x + 2 e2x cos xdx
2x
So,
Z
I = uv vdu
Z
1 1
I = tan x x x dx
1 + x2
Z
x
I = x tan1 x dx
1 + x2
Z
1 1 2x
I = x tan x dx
2 1 + x2

I = x tan1 x ln(1 + x2 ) + c (6.11)
