(a) with the substitution
(b) with the trigonometric substitution x = 2 tan u.
Solve each of the integrals in Exercises 39–74. Some integrals require trigonometric substitution, and some do not. Write your answers as algebraic functions whenever possible.
Solve the integral:.
Why don’t we need to have a square root involved in order to apply trigonometric substitution with the tangent? In other words, why can we use the substitution when we see , even though we can’t use the substitution unless the integrand involves the square root of? (Hint: Think about domains.)
Complete the square for each quadratic in Exercises 28–33. Then describe the trigonometric substitution that would be appropriate if you were solving an integral that involved that quadratic.
