Example Question #2 : Integrals
Integrate the following.
We can integrate the function by using substitution where so .
Just focus on integrating sine now:
The last step is to reinsert the substitution:
Example Question #1 : Trigonometric Integrals
Integrate the following.
We can integrate using substitution:
and so
Now we can just focus on integrating cosine:
Once the integration is complete, we can reinsert our substitution:
Example Question #2 : Trigonometric Integrals
Evaluate the following integral.
Recall: The identity
The integral can be rewritten as
Because of the trig identity above, we can rewrite it in a different way:
Now we can integrate using substitution where and
Finally, we reinsert our substitution:
Example Question #3 : Trigonometric Integrals
Evaluate the following integral.
Recall: The trig identity
We can rewrite the integral using the above identity as
We can now solve the integral using substitution and
The last step is to reinsert our substitution:
Example Question #11 : Integrals
Fnd the derivative of tan(x) with respect to x or
Derivative cannot be found
The is one of the trigonometric integrals that must be memorized.
Other common trig derivatives that should be memorized are:
Example Question #5 : Trigonometric Integrals
Evaluate:
1) The 1/2 is a constant, and so is pulled out front.
2) The integral of cos(x) is sin(x), by definition.
3) Writing the limits for evaluation:
4) Using the unit circle, , and .
5)Simplifying:
