Integration by Substitution

If we have to evaluate an integral of the type \(\int f\{\phi(x)\} \cdot \phi^{\prime}(x) d x\) then we put Φ(x) = t and Φ'(x)dx = dt. With this substitution, the integrand becomes easily integrable.

Case 1 When the integrand is of the form f(ax+b), we put (ax+b) = t and \(d x=\frac{1}{a} d t .\)

Case 2 When the integrand is of the form xn-1.f(xn), we put xn = t and nxn-1dx = dt.

Case 3 When the integrand is of the form {f(x)}n.f'(x), we put f(x) = t and f'(x) dx = dt .

Case 4 When the integrand is of the form \(\frac{f^{\prime}(x)}{f(x)}\), we put f(x) = t and f'(x)dx = dt.

Theorem 1 \(\int(a x+b)^n d x=\frac{(a x+b)^{n+1}}{a(n+1)}+C\), where n ≠ -1.

Proof

Putting ax + b = t, we get a dx = dt or dx = \(\frac{1}{a}\)dt.

∴ \(\int(a x+b)^n d x=\frac{1}{a} \int t^n d t\)=\(\frac{1}{a} \cdot \frac{t^{n+1}}{(n+1)}+C\)=\(\frac{(a x+b)^{n+1}}{a(n+1)}+C .\)

Theorem 2

\(\int \cos (a x+b) d x=\frac{1}{a} \sin (a x+b)+C\)

Proof

Put (ax+b) = t so that dx = \(\frac{1}{a}\)dt.

∴ \(\int \cos (a x+b) d x=\frac{1}{a} \int \cos t d t\)

= \(\frac{1}{a} \sin t+C\)

= \(\frac{1}{a} \sin (a x+b)+C .\)

Solved Examples

Example 1 Evaluate:

(1) \(\int(3 x+5)^7 d x\)

(2) \(\int(4-9 x)^5 d x\)

(3) \(\int \frac{1}{(2-3 x)^4} d x\)

(4) \(\int \sqrt{a x+b} d x\)

Solution

(1) Put (3x+5) = t so that 3dx = dt or dx = \(\frac{1}{3}\)dt.

∴ \(\int(3 x+5)^7 d x=\frac{1}{3} \int t^7 d t=\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{t^8}{8}+C=\frac{(3 x+5)^8}{24}+C .\)

(2) Put (4-9x) = t so that -9dx = dt or dx = \(-\frac{1}{9}\)dt.

∴ \(\int(4-9 x)^5 d x=-\frac{1}{9} \int t^5 d t=-\frac{1}{9} \cdot \frac{t^6}{6}+C=\frac{-(4-9 x)^6}{54}+C\).

(3) Put (2-3x) = t so that -3dx = dt or dx = \(-\frac{1}{9}\)dt.

∴ \(\int \frac{1}{(2-3 x)^4} d x=-\frac{1}{3} \int \frac{1}{t^4} d t=-\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{\left(-3 t^3\right)}+C=\frac{1}{9(2-3 x)^3}+C\).

(4) Put (ax+b) = t so that a dx = dt.

∴ \(\int \sqrt{a x+b} d t=\frac{1}{a} \int \sqrt{t} d t=\frac{2}{3 a} t^{3 / 2}+C=\frac{2(a x+b)^{3 / 2}}{3 a}+C .\)

Example 2 Evaluate:

Integration Types

Solution

(1) Put 2x = t so that 2 dx = dt or dx = \(\frac{1}{2}\) dt.

∴ \(\int \cos 2 x d x=\frac{1}{2} \int \cos t d t=\frac{1}{2} \sin t+C=\frac{1}{2} \sin 2 x+C .\)

(2) Put (5x+3) = t so that 5dx = dt or dx = \(\frac{1}{5}\) dt.

∴ \(\int e^{(5 x+3)} d x=\frac{1}{5} \int e^t d t=\frac{1}{5} \cdot e^t+C=\frac{1}{5} e^{(5 x+3)}+C .\)

(3) Put (3x+5) = t so that 3dx = dt or dx = \(\frac{1}{3}\) dt.

∴ \(\int \sec ^2(3 x+5) d x=\frac{1}{3} \int \sec ^2 t d t=\frac{1}{3} \tan t+C\)

= \(\frac{1}{3} \tan (3 x+5)+C\)

(4) We know that sin 3x = 3 sin x – 4 sin3x.

∴ \(\sin ^3 x=\frac{1}{4}(3 \sin x-\sin 3 x)\)

So, \(\int \sin ^3 x d x=\int\left(\frac{3}{4} \sin x-\frac{1}{4} \sin 3 x\right) d x\)

= \(\frac{3}{4} \int \sin x d x-\frac{1}{4} \int \sin 3 x d x\)

= \(\frac{3}{4}(-\cos x)-\frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{(-\cos 3 x)}{3}+C\)

= \(-\frac{3}{4} \cos x+\frac{\cos 3 x}{12}+C\)

(4) \(\int \frac{\sin \sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}} d x\)

Solution

(1) Put log x = t so that \(\frac{1}{2}\) dx = dt.

∴ \(\int \frac{\log x}{x} d x=\int t d t=\frac{1}{2} t^2+C=\frac{1}{2}(\log x)^2+C\)

Integration Types

(2) Put log x = t so that \(\frac{1}{2}\) dx = dt.

(3) Put tan-1x = t so that \(\frac{1}{\left(1+x^2\right)}\) dx = dt.

∴ \(\int \frac{e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}{\left(1+x^2\right)} d x=\int e^t d t=e^t+C=e^{\tan ^{-1} x}+C\)

(4) Put √x = t so that \(\frac{1}{2} x^{-1 / 2}\) dx = dt

or \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} d x=2 d t\)

∴ \(\int \frac{\sin \sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}} d x=2 \int \sin t d t\)

= 2(-cos t) + C = -2 cos T + C = -2 cos √x + C.

= \(\frac{-13}{4} \int \frac{1}{t} d t+\frac{3}{4} \int d t=-\frac{13}{4} \log |t|+\frac{3}{4} t+C\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \int \frac{(t-1)}{t^3} d t=\frac{1}{2} \int \frac{1}{t^2} d t-\frac{1}{2} \int \frac{1}{t^3} d t\)

= \(\frac{-1}{2 t}+\frac{1}{4 t^2}+C=\frac{-1}{2\left(x^2+1\right)}+\frac{1}{4\left(x^2+1\right)^2}+C\)

(3) Put (1-x3) = t so that x3 = (t-1) and x2dx = \(-\frac{1}{3}\) dt.

= \(-\frac{1}{3} \int \frac{(1-t)^2}{t^{1 / 3}} d t=-\frac{1}{3} \int \frac{\left(1+t^2-2 t\right)}{t^{1 / 3}} d t\)

= \(2 \int t^2 d t-10 \int d t=\frac{2 t^3}{3}-10 t+C\)

Integration Types Maths

(2) \(\int \cot x d x\)

(3) \(\int \sec x d x\)

Solution

(1) \(\int \tan x d x=\int \frac{\sin x}{\cos x} d x\)

Integration Types Maths

= \(\int \frac{1}{t} d t\), where sin x = t and cos x dx = dt

∴ \(\int \cot x d x=\log |\sin x|+C\) .

(3) \(\int \sec x d x=\int \frac{\sec x(\sec x+\tan x)}{(\sec x+\tan x)} d x\)

[multiplying numerator and denominator by (sec x + tan x)]

= \(\int \frac{1}{t} d t\), where (sec x + tan x) = t and sec x(sec x + tan x)dx = dt

= log |t| + C = log |(sec x + tam x)] + C.

∴ \(\int \sec x d x=\log |(\sec x+\tan x)|+C .\)

Alternative form

\(\sec x+\tan x=\left(\frac{1}{\cos x}+\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}\right)=\frac{(1+\sin x)}{\cos x}\)

Putting \(\sin x=\frac{2 \tan (x / 2)}{1+\tan ^2(x / 2)} \text { and } \cos x=\frac{1-\tan ^2(x / 2)}{1+\tan ^2(x / 2)} \text {. }\)

∴ \(\sec x+\tan x=\frac{1+\tan (x / 2)}{1-\tan (x / 2)}=\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{x}{2}\right)\)

∴ \(\int \sec x d x=\log |\sec x+\tan x|+C\)

Integration Using Trigonometric Identities

When the integrand consists of trigonometric functions, we use known identities to convert it into a form which can easily be integrated. Some of the identities useful for this purpose are given below:

(1) \(2 \sin ^2\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=(1-\cos x)\)

(2) \(2 \cos ^2\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=(1+\cos x)\)

(3) 2 sin a cos b = sin (a+b) + sin (a-b)

(4) 2 cos a sin b = sin (a+b) – sin (a-b)

(5) 2 cos a cos b = cos (a+b) + cos (a-b)

(6) 2 sin a sin b = cos (a-b) – cos (a+b)

Theorem If u and v are two functions of x then

\(\int(u v) d x=\left[u \cdot \int v d x\right]-\int\left\{\frac{d u}{d x} \cdot \int v d x\right\} d x\)

Proof

For any two functions f1(x) and f1(x), we have

\(\frac{d}{d x}\left[f_1(x) \cdot f_2(x)\right]=f_1(x) \cdot f_2^{\prime}(x)+f_2(x) \cdot f_1^{\prime}(x) .\)

∴ \(\int\left\{f_1(x) \cdot f_2^{\prime}(x)+f_2(x) \cdot f_1^{\prime}(x)\right\} d x=f_1(x) \cdot f_2(x)\)

or \(\int f_1(x) \cdot f_2^{\prime}(x) d x+\int f_2(x) \cdot f_1^{\prime}(x) d x=f_1(x) \cdot f_2(x)\)

or \(\int f_1(x) \cdot f_2^{\prime}(x) d x=f_1(x) \cdot f_2(x)-\int f_2(x) \cdot f_1^{\prime}(x) d x \text {. }\)

Let f1(x) = u and f2‘(x) = v so that f2(x) = \(\int v d x\)

Integration Examples

∴ \(\int(u v) d x=u \cdot \int v d x-\int\left\{\frac{d u}{d x} \cdot \int v d x\right\} d x\)

We can express this result as given below:

= (1st function) x (integral of 2nd) – \(\left.\int\{(\text { derivative of } 1 \text { st }) \times \text { (integral of } 2 \text { nd })\right\} d x\)

Remarks

(1) If the integrand is of the form f(x)xn, we consider xn as the first function and f(x) as the second function.

(2) If the integrated contains a logarithmic or an inverse trigonometric function, we take it as the first function. In all such cases, if the second function is not given, we take it as 1.

(2) Integrating by parts, taking x as the first function, we get

\(\int x \sin 2 x d x=x \cdot \int \sin 2 x d x-\int\left\{\frac{d}{d x}(x) \cdot \int \sin 2 x d x\right\} d x\)

Example 18 Evaluate \(\int x \cos ^3 x \sin x d x\)

Solution

Given

\(\int x \cos ^3 x \sin x d x\)

Take x as the first function and (cos3x sin x) as the second.

Putting cos x = t, we can evaluate \(\int \cos ^3 x \sin x d x \text { as }-\frac{1}{4} \cos ^4 x \text {. }\)

So, integrating by parts, we get

\(\int x \cos ^3 x \sin x d x=x \cdot\left(\frac{-1}{4} \cos ^4 x\right)-\int 1 \cdot\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right) \cos ^4 x d x\)

= \(-\frac{x}{4} \cos ^4 x+\frac{1}{4} \int\left(\frac{1+\cos 2 x}{2}\right)^2 d x\)

= \(-\frac{x \cos ^4 x}{4}+\frac{1}{4} \int\left(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{\cos ^2 2 x}{4}+\cos 2 x\right) d x\)

= \(-\frac{x \cos ^4 x}{4}+\frac{1}{16} \int d x+\frac{1}{4} \int \cos 2 x d x+\frac{1}{32} \int 2 \cos ^2 2 x d x\)

= \(-\frac{x \cos ^4 x}{4}+\frac{x}{16}+\frac{\sin 2 x}{8}+\frac{1}{32} \int(1+\cos 4 x) d x+C\)

= \(-\frac{x \cos ^4 x}{4}+\frac{x}{16}+\frac{\sin 2 x}{8}+\frac{1}{32} \int d x+\frac{1}{32} \int \cos 4 x d x\)

= \(-\frac{x \cos ^4 x}{4}+\frac{3 x}{32}+\frac{\sin 2 x}{8}+\frac{\sin 4 x}{128}+C .\)

\(\int x \cos ^3 x \sin x d x\) = \(-\frac{x \cos ^4 x}{4}+\frac{3 x}{32}+\frac{\sin 2 x}{8}+\frac{\sin 4 x}{128}+C .\)

Example 19 Evaluate \(\int \sin (\log x) d x\)

Solution

Given

\(\int \sin (\log x) d x\)

Put log x = t so that x = et and \frac{1}{x}dx = dt or dx = etdt.

∴ \(\int \sin (\log x) d x=\int e^t \sin t d t\) ..(1)

Now, \(\int e^t \sin t d t=e^t(-\cos t)-\int e^t \cdot(-\cos t) d t\) [integrating by parts]

= \(-e^t \cos t+\int e^t \cos t d t\)

= \(-e^t \cos t+\left[e^t \sin t-\int e^t \sin t d t\right]\) [integratingn et cos t by parts]

= \(-e^t \cos t+e^t \sin t-\int e^t \sin t d t\)

∴ \(2 \int e^t \sin t d t=-e^t \cos t+e^t \sin t\)

or \(\int e^t \sin t d t=\frac{1}{2}\left(-e^t \cos t+e^t \sin t\right)+C\).

Putting this value in (1), we get

\(\int \sin (\log x) d x=\int e^t \sin t d t\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\left(-e^t \cos t+e^t \sin t\right)+C\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}[-x \cos (\log x)+x \sin (\log x)]+C\)

= \(-\frac{1}{2} x \cos (\log x)+\frac{1}{2} x \sin (\log x)+C\).

\(\int \sin (\log x) d x\) = \(-\frac{1}{2} x \cos (\log x)+\frac{1}{2} x \sin (\log x)+C\).

= \(t^2\left(\tan ^{-1} t\right)-\int \frac{t^2}{\left(1+t^2\right)} d t+C\)

= \(t^2\left(\tan ^{-1} t\right)-\int \frac{\left[\left(1+t^2\right)-1\right]}{\left(1+t^2\right)} d t+C\)

= \(t^2\left(\tan ^{-1} t\right)-\int d t+\int \frac{1}{\left(1+t^2\right)} d t+C\)

= \(t2 (tan-1t) – t + tan-1t + C = (t2+1)tan-1t – t + C\)

= \((x+1) \tan ^{-1} \sqrt{x}-\sqrt{x}+C .\)

I = \(\tan ^{-1} x \cdot \frac{(-1)}{(1+x)}-\int \frac{1}{\left(1+x^2\right)} \cdot \frac{(-1)}{(1+x)} d x\)

= \(\frac{-\tan ^{-1} x}{(1+x)}+\int \frac{d x}{(1+x)\left(1+x^2\right)}=\frac{-\tan ^{-1} x}{(1+x)}+\frac{1}{2} \cdot \int\left\{\frac{1}{(1+x)}+\frac{(1-x)}{\left(1+x^2\right)}\right\}\)

[by partial fractions]

Remark

Put a = r cos θ and b = r sin θ so that

r = \(\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\) and θ = \(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{b}{a}\right).\)

WBCHSE Class 12 Maths Solutions Indefinite Integral

Integration It is the inverse process of differentiation.

If the derivative of F(x) is f(x) then we say that the antiderivative or integral of f(x) is F(x) and we write,

\(\int f(x) d x=F(x) .\)

Thus, \(\frac{d}{d x}[F(x)]=f(x) \Rightarrow \int f(x) d x=F(x) .\)

Example Since \(\frac{d}{d x}(\sin x)=\cos x\), we have \(\int \cos x d x=\sin x.\)

Moreover, if C is any constant then \(\frac{d}{d x}(\sin x+C)=\cos x.\)

So, in general, \(\int \cos x d x=(\sin x+C) .\)

Different values of C will give different integrals.

Thus, a given function may have an indefinite number of integrals. Because of this property, we call these integrals indefinite integrals.

Thus, \(\frac{d}{d x}[F(x)]=f(x) \Rightarrow \int f(x) d x=F(x)+C\), where C is a constant, called the constant of integration. Any function to be integrated is known as an integrand.

The following two results are a direct consequence of the definition of an integral.

Result 1 \(\int x^n d x=\frac{x^{(n+1)}}{(n+1)}+C\), when n ≠ -1.

Proof

We have, \(\frac{d}{d x}\left(\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}\right)=\frac{(n+1) x^n}{(n+1)}=x^n\)

∴ \(\int x^n d x=\frac{x^{(n+1)}}{(n+1)}+\text { C. }\)

Result 2 \(\int \frac{1}{x} d x=\log |x|+C\), where x ≠ 0.

Proof

Either x > 0 or x < 0.

Case 1 When x > 0

In this case, | x | = x.

∴ \(\frac{d}{d x}[\log |x|]=\frac{d}{d x}(\log x)=\frac{1}{x}\)

Indefinite Integral Examples And Solutions

So, we have, \(\int \frac{1}{x} d x=\log |x|+C \text {. }\)

Case 2 When x < 0

In this case | x | = -x.

∴ \(\frac{d}{d x}[\log |x|]=\frac{d}{d x}[\log (-x)]=\frac{1}{(-x)} \cdot(-1)=\frac{1}{x}\)

So, we have \(\int \frac{1}{x} d x=\log |x|+C .\)

Thus, from both the cases, we have \(\int \frac{1}{x} d x=\log |x|+C\)

Some Standard Results on Integration

Theorem 1 \(\frac{d}{d x}\left\{\int f(x) d x\right\}=f(x) .\)

Proof

Let \(\int f(x) d x=F(x)\) …(1)

Then, \(\frac{d}{d x}\{F(x)\}=f(x)\) [by def. of integral].

∴ \(\frac{d}{d x}\left\{\int f(x) d x\right\}=f(x)\) [using (1)]

Theorem 2 \(\int k \cdot f(x) d x=k \cdot \int f(x) d x\), where k is a constant.

Proof

Let \(\int f(x) d x=F(x)\) …(1)

Then, \(\frac{d}{d x}\{F(x)\}=f(x)\) …(2)

∴ \(\frac{d}{d x}\{k \cdot F(x)\}=k \cdot \frac{d}{d x}\{F(x)\}=k \cdot f(x)\) [using(2)]

So, by the definition of an integral, we have

\(\int\{k \cdot f(x)\} d x=k \cdot F(x)=k \cdot \int f(x) d x\) [using (1)].

Example 2 Evaluate:

(1) \(\int 3 x^2 d x\)

(2) \(\int 2^{(x+3)} d x=\int 2^x \cdot 2^3 d x=8 \int 2^x d x=8 \cdot \frac{2^x}{\log 2}+C=\frac{2^{(x+3)}}{\log 2}+C .\)

Theorem 3

(1) \(\int\left\{f_1(x)+f_2(x)\right\} d x=\int f_1(x) d x+\int f_2(x) d x\)

(2) \(\int\left\{f_1(x)-f_2(x)\right\} d x=\int f_1(x) d x-\int f_2(x) d x\)

Proof

(1) Let \(\int f_1(x) d x=F_1(x) \text { and } \int f_2(x) d x=F_2(x)\) …(1)

Then, \(\frac{d}{d x}\left\{F_1(x)\right\}=f_1(x) \text { and } \frac{d}{d x}\left\{F_2(x)\right\}=f_2(x)\) …(2)

Now, \(\frac{d}{d x}\left\{F_1(x)+F_2(x)\right\}=\frac{d}{d x}\left\{F_1(x)\right\}+\frac{d}{d x}\left\{F_2(x)\right\}\)

= f1(x) + f2(x) [using(2)].

∴ \(\int\left\{f_1(x)+f_2(x)\right] d x=F_1(x)+F_2(x)\)

= \(\int f_1(x) d x+\int f_2(x) d x\) [using (1)].

Similarly, (2) can be proved.
