Challenge Show that with the change of variables \(u=\sqrt{\tan x}\) the integral \(\int \sqrt{\tan x} d x\) can be converted to an integral amenabl to partial fractions. Evaluate \(\int_{0}^{\pi / 4} \sqrt{\tan x} d x\)
Recall that the substitution \(x=a \sec \theta\) implies that \(x \geq a\) (in which case \(0 \leq \theta<\pi / 2\) and \(\tan \theta \geq 0\) ) or \(x \leq-a\) (in which case \(\pi / 2<\theta \leq \pi\) and \(\tan \theta \leq 0\) ). Evaluate for \(\int \frac{\sqrt{x^{2}-1}}{x^{3}} d x,\) for \(x>1\) and for \(x<-1\)
Let \(a>0\) and let \(R\) be the region bounded by the graph of \(y=e^{-a x}\) and the \(x\) -axis on the interval \([b, \infty).\) a. Find \(A(a, b),\) the area of \(R\) as a function of \(a\) and \(b\) b. Find the relationship \(b=g(a)\) such that \(A(a, b)=2\) c. What is the minimum value of \(b\) (call it \(b^{*}\) ) such that when \(b>b^{*}, A(a, b)=2\) for some value of \(a>0 ?\)
a. Verify the identity \(\sec x=\frac{\cos x}{1-\sin ^{2} x}\) b. Use the identity in part (a) to verify that \(\int \sec x d x=\frac{1}{2} \ln \left|\frac{1+\sin x}{1-\sin x}\right|+C\) (Source: The College Mathematics Joumal \(32,\) No. 5 (November 2001))
By reduction formula 4 in Section 3 $$\int \sec ^{3} u d u=\frac{1}{2}(\sec u \tan u+\ln |\sec u+\tan u|)+C$$ Graph the following functions and find the area under the curve on the given interval. $$f(x)=\left(x^{2}-25\right)^{1 / 2},[5,10]$$
