a) cos 3x dx b) √
3
dx c) xex dx
Z e 4x +7 Z1
3
R x x (ln x) sin x
d) e sin(e ) dx e) f) tan x dx (Hint: tan x = )
1 x cos x
Z Z Z 1
x arcsin x p
g) h) √ dx i) (x2 + 1) 2x3 + 6x dx
x2 + 1 1 − x2 0

2. Find and correct the mistakes in the following “solutions” to these integration problems.
Z
a) sin 5x dx; u = 5x, du = 5dx
Z Z
sin 5x dx = 5 sin u du = −5 cos u + C = −5 cos 5x + C
Z
cos x
b) dx; u = sin x, du = cos xdx
1 + sin2 x
Z Z
cos x du
dx = = ln |1 + u2 | + C = ln |(1 + sin2 x)| + C
1 + sin2 x 1 + u2
Z 1
