Worked solution

10(a)

1. Apply the product-to-sum trigonometric factor formula.

∫sin⁡3xcos⁡x dx=∫12(sin⁡(3x+x)+sin⁡(3x−x)) dx\int \sin 3x \cos x \text{ d}x = \int \frac{1}{2} (\sin(3x + x) + \sin(3x - x)) \text{ d}x
=12∫(sin⁡4x+sin⁡2x) dx= \frac{1}{2} \int (\sin 4x + \sin 2x) \text{ d}x

2. Integrate the resulting terms and add the arbitrary constant of integration.

=12(−14cos⁡4x−12cos⁡2x)+c= \frac{1}{2} \left( -\frac{1}{4}\cos 4x - \frac{1}{2}\cos 2x \right) + c
=−18cos⁡4x−14cos⁡2x+c= -\frac{1}{8}\cos 4x - \frac{1}{4}\cos 2x + c

Answer

−18cos⁡4x−14cos⁡2x+c-\frac{1}{8}\cos 4x - \frac{1}{4}\cos 2x + c

10(b)

1. Express the numerator in terms of the derivative of the denominator.

∫xx2+4x+13 dx=∫12(2x+4)−2x2+4x+13 dx\int \frac{x}{x^2 + 4x + 13} \text{ d}x = \int \frac{\frac{1}{2}(2x + 4) - 2}{x^2 + 4x + 13} \text{ d}x

2. Split the integral and evaluate the part involving the natural logarithm.

=12∫2x+4x2+4x+13 dx−∫2x2+4x+13 dx=12ln⁡(x2+4x+13)−∫2x2+4x+13 dx = \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{2x + 4}{x^2 + 4x + 13} \text{ d}x - \int \frac{2}{x^2 + 4x + 13} \text{ d}x \\ = \frac{1}{2} \ln(x^2 + 4x + 13) - \int \frac{2}{x^2 + 4x + 13} \text{ d}x

3. Complete the square for the denominator of the remaining integral.

x2+4x+13=(x+2)2−22+13=(x+2)2+9x^2 + 4x + 13 = (x + 2)^2 - 2^2 + 13 = (x + 2)^2 + 9
=12ln⁡(x2+4x+13)−2∫1(x+2)2+32 dx= \frac{1}{2} \ln(x^2 + 4x + 13) - 2 \int \frac{1}{(x + 2)^2 + 3^2} \text{ d}x

4. Evaluate the inverse tangent integral and add the constant of integration.

=12ln⁡(x2+4x+13)−2[13tan⁡−1(x+23)]+C=12ln⁡(x2+4x+13)−23tan⁡−1(x+23)+C = \frac{1}{2} \ln(x^2 + 4x + 13) - 2 \left[ \frac{1}{3} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x + 2}{3}\right) \right] + C \\ = \frac{1}{2} \ln(x^2 + 4x + 13) - \frac{2}{3} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x + 2}{3}\right) + C
Answer

12ln⁡(x2+4x+13)−23tan⁡−1(x+23)+C\frac{1}{2} \ln(x^2 + 4x + 13) - \frac{2}{3} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{x + 2}{3}\right) + C

1. Differentiate the given substitution to find $\text{d}x$ and substitute into the integral.

x=3sin⁡θ  ⟹  dxdθ=3cos⁡θ  ⟹  dx=3cos⁡θ dθx = 3\sin\theta \implies \frac{\text{d}x}{\text{d}\theta} = 3\cos\theta \implies \text{d}x = 3\cos\theta \text{ d}\theta
∫9−x2 dx=∫9−(3sin⁡θ)2(3cos⁡θ) dθ\int \sqrt{9 - x^2} \text{ d}x = \int \sqrt{9 - (3\sin\theta)^2} (3\cos\theta) \text{ d}\theta

2. Simplify the expression under the square root using the Pythagorean identity.

=∫9−9sin⁡2θ(3cos⁡θ) dθ= \int \sqrt{9 - 9\sin^2\theta} (3\cos\theta) \text{ d}\theta
=∫9(1−sin⁡2θ)(3cos⁡θ) dθ= \int \sqrt{9(1 - \sin^2\theta)} (3\cos\theta) \text{ d}\theta
=∫(3cos⁡θ)(3cos⁡θ) dθ= \int (3\cos\theta)(3\cos\theta) \text{ d}\theta
=∫9cos⁡2θ dθ= \int 9\cos^2\theta \text{ d}\theta

3. Integrate with respect to $\theta$ using the double-angle formula for cosine.

=∫92(1+cos⁡2θ) dθ= \int \frac{9}{2} (1 + \cos 2\theta) \text{ d}\theta
=92(θ+12sin⁡2θ)+C= \frac{9}{2} \left( \theta + \frac{1}{2}\sin 2\theta \right) + C

4. Convert the result back to the original variable $x$ to find the final integral.

=92(θ+sin⁡θcos⁡θ)+C= \frac{9}{2} \left( \theta + \sin\theta \cos\theta \right) + C
Since x=3sin⁡θx = 3\sin\theta, we have sin⁡θ=x3\sin\theta = \frac{x}{3} and θ=sin⁡−1(x3)\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{3}\right).
Using the identity cos⁡θ=1−sin⁡2θ\cos\theta = \sqrt{1 - \sin^2\theta} (since cos⁡θ≥0\cos\theta \ge 0 for principal values of sin⁡−1\sin^{-1}):
cos⁡θ=1−(x3)2=9−x23\cos\theta = \sqrt{1 - \left(\frac{x}{3}\right)^2} = \frac{\sqrt{9-x^2}}{3}
Substituting these back into our expression:
=92[sin⁡−1(x3)+(x3)(9−x23)]+C= \frac{9}{2} \left[ \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{3}\right) + \left(\frac{x}{3}\right)\left(\frac{\sqrt{9-x^2}}{3}\right) \right] + C
=92sin⁡−1(x3)+x29−x2+C= \frac{9}{2}\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{3}\right) + \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{9-x^2} + C

Answer

92sin⁡−1(x3)+x29−x2+C\frac{9}{2}\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{3}\right) + \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{9-x^2} + C
