Explain why and are essentially the same integral after a change of variables.
True/False: Determine whether each of the statements that follow is true or false. If a statement is true, explain why. If a statement is false, provide a counterexample.
(a) True or False: The substitution x = 2 sec u is a suitable choice for solving.
(b) True or False: The substitution x = 2 sec u is a suitable choice for solving.
(c) True or False: The substitution x = 2 tan u is a suitable choice for solving
(d) True or False: The substitution x = 2 sin u is a suitable choice for solving
(e) True or False: Trigonometric substitution is a useful strategy for solving any integral that involves an expression of the form .
(f) True or False: Trigonometric substitution doesn’t solve an integral; rather, it helps you rewrite integrals as ones that are easier to solve by other methods.
(g) True or False: When using trigonometric substitution with , we must consider the cases and separately.
(h) True or False: When using trigonometric substitution with , we must consider the cases and separately.
Find three integrals in Exercises 27–70 for which either algebra or u-substitution is a better strategy than integration by parts.
Find three integrals in Exercises 27–70 for which a good strategy is to apply integration by parts twice.
Give an example of an integral for which trigonometric substitution is possible but an easier method is available. Then give an example of an integral that we still don’t know how to solve given the techniques we know at this point.
