Lecture Eight
In this lecture we will cover:

Indefinite integrals
Integration of Logarithmic and Exponential functions
Integration of Trigonometric functions

Introduction
Indefinite Integrals
When the limits of the integral are not given, we can write

𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = 𝐹(𝑥) + 𝑐, if and only if 𝐹 (𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥). (1)

Where 𝑐 is an arbitrary constant, called a constant of integration.

The expression on the left in (1) is called an indefinite integral of 𝑓.

Example
1
𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥 + 𝑐.

Note:
(1) 𝐷 ∫ 𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥 = 𝐷 [𝐹(𝑥) + 𝑐] + 𝑐.

(2) ∫ 𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥 = [∫ 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥]

(3) ∫ 𝑥 𝑑𝑟 = 𝑥 + 𝑐, 𝑟 ≠ −1.

(4) ∫[𝑓(𝑥) + 𝑔(𝑥)] 𝑑𝑥 = ∫ 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 + ∫ 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥

(5) ∫ 𝑐 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 𝑐 ∫ 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥, 𝑐 is areal number.

Example

/

𝐷 (𝑥 + 5) = + 𝑐.
√𝑥 + 5

∫ 𝑑𝑥 = √𝑥 + 5 + 𝑐
√

(6) 𝐷 𝐹 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝐹 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑔 (𝑥) = 𝑓 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑔 (𝑥).

 ∫ 𝑓 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑔 (𝑥)𝑑𝑥 = 𝐹 𝑔(𝑥) + 𝑐, where 𝐹 = 𝑓.

Now if we let 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥), then

𝑑𝑢
= 𝑔 (𝑥) or 𝑑𝑢 = 𝑔 (𝑥)𝑑𝑥
𝑑𝑥

This approach is known as change of variable or a method of substitution.

(7) Using formula above, we can write

𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = 𝑢 +𝑐
𝑟+1
where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥), 𝑑𝑢 = 𝑔 (𝑥)𝑑𝑥 and 𝑟 ≠ −1.

Example
Find ∫(2𝑥 + 1) 𝑥 𝑑𝑥

Solution
Let 𝑢 = 2𝑥 + 1

 = 6𝑥 𝑜𝑟 𝑑𝑢 = 6𝑥 𝑑𝑥.

∫(2𝑥 + 1) 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = ∫(2𝑥 + 1) 6𝑥 𝑑𝑥

= ∫(𝑢) 𝑑𝑢 = 𝑢 + 𝑐

/
Since 𝑢 = 2𝑥 + 1 ==> 𝑥 =

 ∫(2𝑥 + 1) 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = (2𝑥 + 1) + 𝑘

= [(2𝑥 + 1) ] + 𝑘

= [(2𝑥 + 1) ] + 𝐶

OR
𝑢 = 2𝑥 + 1, 𝑑𝑢 = 6𝑥 𝑑𝑥.

 𝑑𝑢 = 𝑥 𝑑𝑥.

Integration of Logarithmic
and Exponential Functions
In part 1 of this lecture, we looked at the definitions of logarithmic and
exponential functions. We will not repeat these definitions here, we are going
to just use them. In case one needs to know more about them, I refer you to
the notes on differentiation in part 1 of this course.

Integration of Trigonometric Functions

As seen in Part I of this lecture, trigonometric functions are:
sin 𝑥 , cos 𝑥 , tan 𝑥 , sec 𝑥 , cot 𝑥 , csc 𝑥 and there inverses. Here we will look at
how to integrate such functions.

Cosine function: 𝐜𝐨𝐬 𝒙

We know that

(sin 𝑥) = cos 𝑥,

Then, if we introduce integration with respect to variable 𝑥 on both sides , we

have

∫ (sin 𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = ∫ cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥,

∫ 𝑑(sin 𝑥) = ∫ cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥,

sin 𝑥 + 𝑐 = ∫ cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥,

Thus,

cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = sin 𝑥 + 𝑐, where 𝑐 is a constant of integration.

In general form:

cos 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = sin 𝑢 + 𝑐, where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥).

Sine function: 𝐬𝐢𝐧 𝒙

We know that

(cos 𝑥) = − sin 𝑥,

Then, if we introduce integration with respect to variable 𝑥 on both sides , we

have

∫ (cos 𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = − ∫ sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥,

∫ 𝑑(cos 𝑥) = − ∫ sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥,

 −cos 𝑥 + 𝑐 = ∫ sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥,

Thus,

EMT1123: Engineering Mathematics 1 Lecturer Notes Page 18

 -

sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = − cos 𝑥 + 𝑐, where 𝑐 is a constant of integration.

In general form:

sin 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = −cos 𝑢 + 𝑐, where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥).

Example
Evaluate ∫ sin(5𝑥) 𝑑𝑥

Solution

Let 𝑢 = 5𝑥, ==> 𝑑𝑢 = 5 𝑑𝑥, ==> 𝑑𝑢 = 𝑑𝑥

sin(5𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = sin(𝑢) 𝑑𝑢

Tangent function:

tan 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = −ln|cos 𝑥| + 𝑐, where 𝑐 is a constant of integration.

In general form:

tan 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = −ln|cos 𝑢| + 𝑐, where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥).

Additionally,

sec 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = tan 𝑥 + 𝑐, where 𝑐 is a constant of integration.

In general form:

sec 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = tan 𝑢 + 𝑐, where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥).

Cotangent function:

cot 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = ln|sin 𝑥| + 𝑐, where 𝑐 is a constant of integration.

In general form:

cot 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = ln|sin 𝑢| + 𝑐, where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥).

 -

Cosecant function:

cosec 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = ln|cosec 𝑥 − cot 𝑥| + 𝑐,

where 𝑐 is a constant of integration.

In general form:

cosec 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = ln|cosec 𝑢 − cot 𝑢| + 𝑐, where 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥).
