Example Question #21 :Definite Integrals

Evaluate the indefinite integral

Possible Answers:

None of the other answers

Correct answer:

None of the other answers

Explanation:

The correct answer is

The integral itself is not too difficult to take, simply use the Power Rule on theandterms. The trick is to be careful when integratingis a constant value (about) not a variable, so it must be integrated accordingly.

Example Question #22 :Definite Integrals

Evaluate

Possible Answers:

None of the other answers

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This integral requires integration by parts followed by u-substitution. Here are the details

.Start

.Factor out the

Set up integration by parts with,.We then haveand.随后,我们利用分部积分formula

Now at this point we use u-substitution to evaluate the 2nd integral. Let, thenand therefore.Substituting into the integral we have

.(Don't forget to change the bounds of integration by plugging them intofor our equation for.)

Example Question #23 :Definite Integrals

Evaluate

Possible Answers:

Not possible without a calculator

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This integral isn't possible to integrate directly using antiderivatives, but we can still find its value by noticing thatis an odd function, and that our limits of integration are negatives of each other.

Hence

.(Sinceis an odd function)

Example Question #24 :Definite Integrals

Evaluate

Possible Answers:

None of the other answers.

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We can use u-substitution for this integral

.Start

Let, then, and our integral becomes

.(Don't forget to change the bounds of integration by plugging them into ourequation for)

Example Question #25 :Definite Integrals

Evaluate

Possible Answers:

None of the other answers

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We proceed by using integration by parts.

.Start

Let, then we get
.Then using the integration by parts formula, we get

Example Question #26 :Definite Integrals

Evaluate the following integral:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To evaluate this integral, we must integrate by parts, according to the following formula:

So, we must assign our u and dv, and differentiate and integrate to find du and v, respectively:

导数和积分被发现使用following rules:

,

Note that we ignore the constant of integration.

Now, use the above formula:

Note that both the product of u and vandthe integral are being evaluated from zero to

The integral was performed using the following rule:

Simplifying the above results, we get
