    This document discusses integration by parts. It provides: 1. The integration by parts formula. 2. Guidance on choosing which function to designate as f(x) and g'(x) in order to simplify the integral. 3. Two problem types applying integration by parts: (1) working with polynomials and (2) using circular reasoning to integrate trigonometric functions.

    Discussion 1: Integration by Parts


    Instructor: Alexander Paulin Date:

    1 Concept Review
    f (x)g 0 (x)dx = f (x)g(x) − f 0 (x)g(x)dx
    R R
    1. Formula:
    2. How to use the formula:
    (a) Your focus should be on the simplification or easy Rsolving of the second part of the formula
    wherein
    R 0 you have to integrate f 0 (x)g(x)dx, So choose f (x)g 0 (x) which is easier to integrate than
    f (x)g(x)
    (b) eg. Incase of x ln xdx, you would be tempted Rto choose f (x) = x and g 0 (x) = ln(x) but this
    R

    would result in a complicated integral wherein ln(x) needs Rto be calculated Rwhere as if you
    choose f (x) = ln(x) and g 0 (x) = x, you end with the integral f 0 (x)g(x)dx = x1 (x2 ) which is
    much easier to solve

    3. Compute: arctan(x) given dx arctan(x) = 1+x2 dx

    3 Problem Type 2: Circular Reasoning

    ex sin(x)dx
    R
    1. Compute:

    sin(x)n dx = − n1 cos(x) sin(x)n−1 + n−1 sin(x)n−2 dx (Hint: As done in lecture, start


    R R
    2. Compute: n
    with sin(x) and work your way through sin(x)2 , sin(x)3 , . . . until you see a pattern )
