Chapter 6: Problem 63

In your own words, describe how you would integrate \(\int \sin ^{m} x \cos ^{n} x d x\) for each condition. (a) \(m\) is positive and odd. (b) \(n\) is positive and odd. (c) \(m\) and \(n\) are both positive and even.

Short Answer

Expert verified
For case (a), use the identity \(\sin^2 x = 1 - \cos^2 x\) and substitute \(u = \cos x\). For case (b), use the identity \(\cos^2 x = 1 - \sin^2 x\) and substitute \(u = \sin x\). For case (c), use power-reducing formulas into basic trigonometric integrals.

Step by step solution

01

Case (a): m is positive and odd

This can be approached by saving one factor of \(\sin x\), then using the identity \(\sin^2 x = 1 - \cos^2 x\). Replace every other factor of \(\sin x\) in the integrand by \(1 - \cos^2 x\) and then make a substitution by letting \(u = \cos x\). The differential \(du\) will be \(-\sin x\, dx\). For the integral, the saved factor of \(\sin x\) allows the \(dx\) to be replaced by \(-du\).
02

Case (b): n is positive and odd

Similar to Case (a), here one factor of \(\cos x\) should be saved. The identity \(\cos^2 x = 1 - \sin^2 x\) can be employed, replacing every other factor of \(\cos x\) in the integrand by \(1 - \sin^2 x\). Afterwards, the substitution of \(u = \sin x\) can be used, with \(du = \cos x\, dx\). The saved factor of \(\cos x\) then lets the \(dx\) be replaced by \(du\).
03

Case (c): m and n are both positive and even

In this situation, use the power-reducing formulas \(\cos^2 x = (1 + \cos 2x)/2\) and \(\sin^2 x = (1 - \cos 2x)/2\) to reduce the powers of sine and cosine. The integral will turn into multiples of basic trigonometric integrals.

Find the area of the region bounded by the graphs of the equations.$$ y=\sin x, \quad y=\sin ^{3} x, \quad x=0, \quad x=\pi / 2 $$

Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. If \(f\) is continuous on \([0, \infty)\) and \(\int_{0}^{\infty} f(x) d x\) diverges, then \(\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x) \neq 0\)

True or False? In Exercises 67-70, determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. If \(p(x)\) is a polynomial, then \(\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty}\left[p(x) / e^{x}\right]=0\).

(a) Use a graphing utility to graph the function \(y=e^{-x^{2}}\). (b) Show that \(\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^{2}} d x=\int_{0}^{1} \sqrt{-\ln y} d y\).

For what value of \(c\) does the integral \(\int_{0}^{\infty}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^{2}+1}}-\frac{c}{x+1}\right) d x\) converge? Evaluate the integral for this value of \(c\).
