\({\small 4.\enspace} \displaystyle \int_{1}^{a} \ln 2x \ \mathrm{d}x = 1.\) Find \({\small a} \).
We will use integration by parts to solve this question. The form can be written as follows:
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\displaystyle \int {u\frac{{\mathrm{d}v}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} \ \mathrm{d}x = uv \ – \int {\frac{{\mathrm{d}u}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} v \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Let \(u = \ln 2x\) and \(v = x\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Then,
\(\\[1pt]\)
\( \displaystyle \int {\ln 2x\frac{{\mathrm{d}x}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} \ \mathrm{d}x = x \ln 2x \ – \int {\frac{{\mathrm{d} \ln 2x}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} x \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\( \displaystyle \int {\ln 2x\frac{{\mathrm{d}x}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} \ \mathrm{d}x = x \ln 2x \ – \int {\frac{{\large\frac{1}{2x}} . 2 . \mathrm{d}x} {{\mathrm{d}x}}} x \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Cancel out the like terms,
\(\\[1pt]\)
\( \require{cancel} \displaystyle \int {\ln 2x\frac{{\cancel{\mathrm{d}x}}}{\cancel{\mathrm{d}x}}} \ \mathrm{d}x = x \ln 2x \ – \int {\frac{{\large\frac{1}{\cancel{2}\cancel{x}}} . \cancel{2} . \cancel{\mathrm{d}x}} {\cancel{\mathrm{d}x}}} \cancel{x} \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\( \displaystyle \int \ln 2x \ \mathrm{d}x = x \ln 2x \ – \int \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\( \displaystyle \int \ln 2x \ \mathrm{d}x = x \ln 2x \ – \ x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
After the simplification above, we will just have to substitute the upper and lower bounds of the integration and use algebra to get the solution for a.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} \displaystyle \int_{1}^{a} \ln 2x \ \mathrm{d}x = 1\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} \Big[ x \ln 2x \ – \ x \Big]^{1}_{a} = 1 \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} \Big[ (a \ln 2a \ – \ a) \ – \ (\ln 2 \ – \ 1) \Big] = 1 \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} a \ln 2a \ – a \ – \ \ln 2 \ + \ 1 = 1 \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} a \ln 2a = a \ + \ \ln 2 \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Divide both side of the equation by a,
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} \ln 2a = 1 \ + \ \frac{\ln 2}{a} \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} 2a = \exp(1 \ + \ \frac{\ln 2}{a}) \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} a = {\large\frac{1}{2}} \exp(1 \ + \ \frac{\ln 2}{a}) \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small 5.\enspace}\) Use the substitution \(u = \sin 4x\) to find the exact value of \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{{\Large\frac{\pi}{24}}} \cos^{3} 4x \ \mathrm{d}x.\)
In this question, we will use the direct substitution method and some “tweaking” of the cosine function.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[7pt]\) Let \(u = \sin 4x\)
\(\\[10pt]\hspace{1.1em} \frac{\mathrm{d}u}{\mathrm{d}x} = 4\cos 4x \)
\(\hspace{1.1em} \mathrm{d}u = 4\cos 4x \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Then we tweak the cube of cosine function to make use the direct substitution with u and du.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[12pt]\) Since,
\(\\[15pt] \cos^{3} 4x = \cos^{2} 4x \times \cos 4x \)
\(\\[12pt]\) then,
\(\displaystyle \int \cos^{3} 4x \ \mathrm{d}x = \int (\cos^{2} 4x )( \cos 4x) \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{2.1em} = \displaystyle \int (1 \ – \ \sin^{2} 4x )( \cos 4x) \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{2.1em} = \displaystyle \int (1 \ – \ u^2 ) \times \frac{1}{4} \ \mathrm{d}u \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{2.1em} = \frac{1}{4} \Big( u \ – \ {\large\frac{u^3}{3}} \Big) \ + \ C \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
We can then substitute u back to sin 4x and calculate the upper and lower bound of the integration.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} = \frac{1}{4} \Big[ \sin 4x \ – \ {\large\frac{{\sin}^{3} 4x}{3}} \Big]_{0}^{{\Large\frac{\pi}{24}}} \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} = \frac{1}{4} \Big[\Big( \sin \frac{\pi}{6} \ – \ {\large\frac{{\sin}^{3} \frac{\pi}{6}}{3}} \Big) \ – \ \Big( \sin 0 \ – \ {\large\frac{{\sin}^{3} 0}{3}} \Big) \Big] \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} = \frac{1}{4} \Big[\Big( 0.5 \ – \ {\large\frac{{0.5}^{3}}{3}} \Big) \ – \ \Big( 0 \ – \ 0 \Big) \Big] \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} = {\large \frac{11}{96}}\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small 6. \hspace{0.8em}(i).\hspace{0.8em}}\) Use the trapezium rule with 3 intervals to estimate the value of: \(\displaystyle \int_{{\Large\frac{\pi}{9}}}^{{\Large\frac{2\pi}{3}}} \csc x \ \mathrm{d}x\) giving your answer correct to 2 decimal places.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small\hspace{1.2em}\left(ii\right).\hspace{0.8em}}\) Using a sketch of the graph of \(y = \csc x\), explain whether the trapezium rule gives an overestimate or an underestimate of the true value of the integral in part (i).
\({\small \hspace{1.2em}(i). \enspace }\) We use trapezium rule when solving the integral analytically is not possible. The formula for trapezium rule with 3 intervals is shown as follows:
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em} \displaystyle \int_{x_0}^{x_3} f(x) \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.8em} \approx \frac{1}{2}h \Big[ f(x_0) + 2f(x_1) + 2f(x_2) + f(x_3) \Big]\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em}\) with \(h = {\large \frac{ {x_3} \ – \ {x_0} }{3}}\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
So let’s us plug in each of the corresponding variables,
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} x_0 = {\large\frac{\pi}{9}}\)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} x_3 = {\large\frac{2\pi}{3}}\)
\(\\[10pt] \hspace{1.2em} f(x) = \csc x \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} h = {\large \frac{ {{\large\frac{2\pi}{3}}} \ – \ {{\large\frac{\pi}{9}}} }{3}}\)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{2em} = \ {\large\frac{5\pi}{27}} \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} f(x_0) = \csc {\large\frac{\pi}{9}} \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{3.8em} \approx \ 2.9238 \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} f(x_1) = \csc {\large\frac{8\pi}{27}} \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{3.8em} \approx \ 1.2467 \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} f(x_2) = \csc {\large\frac{13\pi}{27}} \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{3.8em} \approx \ 1.0017 \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{1.2em} f(x_3) = \csc {\large\frac{2\pi}{3}} \)
\(\\[12pt] \hspace{3.8em} \approx \ 1.1547 \)
\(\\[12pt] \displaystyle \int_{x_0}^{x_3} f(x) \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[10pt] \approx \ \frac{1}{2} \Big(\frac{5\pi}{27}\Big) {\small \big[ 2.9238 + 2(1.2467) + 2(1.0017) + 1.1547\big] }\)
\(\\[10pt] \approx \ 2.49 \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small \hspace{1.2em}(ii). \enspace }\) The sketch of \(y = \csc x\) with the corresponding trapezium rule drawing is shown below.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\hspace{1.2em}\) It can be seen that the trapezium rule gives an overestimate of the true value of the integral. The green region shows the extra or “the error” from the approximation of the trapezium rule.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small 7.\enspace}\) Solve these integrations.

\({\small\hspace{1.2em}\left(a\right).\hspace{0.8em}} \displaystyle \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{{x}^{2} \ + \ 4} \ \mathrm{d}x\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small\hspace{1.2em}\left(b\right).\hspace{0.8em}} \displaystyle \int_{0}^{3} \frac{1}{\sqrt{9 \ – \ {x}^{2}}} \ \mathrm{d}x\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small\hspace{1.2em}\left(c\right).\hspace{0.8em}} \displaystyle \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{1}{9{x}^{2} \ + \ 4} \ \mathrm{d}x\)

\({\small\hspace{1.2em}\left(f\right).\hspace{0.8em}} \displaystyle \int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{x \sqrt{{x}^{2} \ – \ 1}} \ \mathrm{d}x\)
Each of these integrals can be solved using trigonometric substitution. There are 3 generic forms to be used in conjunction with the trigonometric substitution. They are:
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small\hspace{1.2em} 1.\hspace{0.8em}}\) If the integral contains: \( (a^2 \ + \ x^2)\) then use \(x = a \tan \theta\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small\hspace{1.2em} 2.\hspace{0.8em}}\) If the integral contains: \( (a^2 \ – \ x^2)\) then use \(x = a \sin \theta\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small\hspace{1.2em} 3.\hspace{0.8em}}\) If the integral contains: \( (x^2 \ – \ a^2)\) then use \(x = a \sec \theta\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Using one of the above forms, we can solve these integrals,
\(\\[1pt]\)

\(\\[17pt]{\small\hspace{1.2em}} = \ {\large\frac{1}{2}} \theta \ + \ C \)
Then we revert the variable \(\theta\) to
x and calculate the upper and lower bound of the integration.

\(\\[1pt]\)
To solve for \({\small {\large \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}}}\), we could use the Product Rule of Differentiation.
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\boxed{ \frac{d}{{dx}}\left( {f\left( x \right)g\left( x \right)} \right) = f\left( x \right)\frac{d}{{dx}}g\left( x \right) + \frac{d}{{dx}}f\left( x \right)g\left( x \right)}\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[15pt]\) Let \(y = {f\left( x \right)g\left( x \right)}\)

Then,

\(\\[25pt] \hspace{2.5em} \displaystyle V \ = \ \pi \int_{a}^{b} {r}^{2} \ \mathrm{d}x \) – The disk method
The lower limit of the integration, a is the x value when \({\small y = 0}\).
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[15pt] \hspace{3.5em} y \ = \ 0 \)
\(\\[20pt] {\small {e}^{{\large – \frac{1}{2}x}} \ \sqrt{(1 \ + \ 2x)} \ = \ 0}\)
\(\\[20pt] {\small {e}^{{\large – \frac{1}{2}{x}_{1}}} \ = \ 0} \quad \) or \(\quad {\small \sqrt{(1 \ + \ 2{x}_{2})} \ = \ 0}\)

\(\\[20pt] \hspace{3em} {\small {x}_{2} \ = \ {\large -\frac{1}{2}} }\)
Therefore, the lower limit, \({\small a \ = \ {\large -\frac{1}{2}} }\).
\(\\[1pt]\)
The upper limit of the integration, \({\small b \ = \ 0 }\).
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[15pt] \hspace{3.7em} {r}^{2} \ = \ {y}^{2} \)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{5em} = \ \big[ {\small {e}^{{\large – \frac{1}{2}x}} \ \sqrt{(1 \ + \ 2x)}} \ \big]^{2} \)
\(\\[18pt] \hspace{5em} = \ {\small {e}^{-x} \ (1 \ + \ 2x) }\)
Hence, the volume is
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[25pt] \hspace{2.5em} \displaystyle V \ = \ \pi \int_{{\large -\frac{1}{2}}}^{0} {e}^{-x} \ (1 \ + \ 2x) \ \mathrm{d}x \)
To solve \({\small \displaystyle \int {e}^{-x} \ (1 \ + \ 2x) \ \mathrm{d}x }\), we’ll use integration by parts,
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\displaystyle \int {u\frac{{\mathrm{d}v}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} \ \mathrm{d}x = uv \ – \int {\frac{{\mathrm{d}u}}{{\mathrm{d}x}}} v \ \mathrm{d}x \)
\(\\[1pt]\)
Let \(\quad {\small u \ = \ 1 \ + \ 2x }\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small \hspace{2em} \mathrm{d}u \ = \ 2 \ \mathrm{d}x }\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small \hspace{2.5em} v \ = \ -{e}^{-x} }\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\({\small \hspace{2em} \mathrm{d}v \ = \ {e}^{-x} \ \mathrm{d}x }\)
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[20pt] {\small \displaystyle \int (1 \ + \ 2x) \ ({e}^{-x}) \ \mathrm{d}x \ = \ (-{e}^{-x}) \ (1 \ + \ 2x) \ + \ 2 \int {e}^{-x} \ \mathrm{d}x }\)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{2em} = \ {\small (-{e}^{-x}) \ (1 \ + \ 2x) \ – \ 2 {e}^{-x} \ + \ C }\)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{2em} = \ {\small -{e}^{-x} \ – \ 2x {e}^{-x} \ – \ 2 {e}^{-x} \ + \ C }\)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{2em} = \ {\small -2x {e}^{-x} \ – \ 3 {e}^{-x} \ + \ C }\)
Then, apply the upper and lower limit of the integration,
\(\\[1pt]\)
\(\\[25pt]{\small \displaystyle \int_{{\large -\frac{1}{2}}}^{0} \ {e}^{-x} \ (1 \ + \ 2x) \ \mathrm{d}x }\)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{2em} = \ -2 \ \Big[ x {e}^{-x}\Big]_{ -\frac{1}{2}}^{0} \ – \ 3 \Big[ {e}^{-x}\Big]_{ -\frac{1}{2}}^{0} \)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{2em} = \ -2 \ \Big[ 0 \ + \ \frac{1}{2}{e}^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big] \ – \ 3 \Big[1 \ – \ {e}^{\frac{1}{2}} \Big] \)
\(\\[20pt] \hspace{2em} = \ 2{e}^{\frac{1}{2}} \ – \ 3 \)
Finally, the volume is
