Exam 1 Flashcards
Volume of Revolution: If the axis of rotation is perpendicular to the axis of integration, then you want to use which method?
Shell Method
V = [a, b] (2pi * (Radius)(Height))
What do you use when you don’t have a volume of revolution? (Perpendicular to the axis of integration)
Slicing
V = Integrate [a, b] A(x)
Work =
Force * Displacement
integrate [a, b] F(x)
Work: If D(h) represents the height travelled at depth h, and A(h) is the cross section area, where w is the weight density, the work becomes:
integrate [a, b] (wD(h)A(h)) dh
Average Value of a Function
f(c) = (1/(b-a)) * integrate [a, b] f(x) dx
a) Find the avg value of the function(s)
b) Find a c in the interval on which the function achieves its avg value
Integration by Parts
Integrate udv = uv - integrate (vdu)
Trig Integrals:
Integrate ((sin^m)x)((cos^n)x)dx
If n is odd:
Save one cosx and convert the rest to sin using
(cos^2)x) = 1 - ((sin^2)x
Trig Integrals:
Integrate ((sin^m)x)((cos^n)x)dx
If m is odd:
Save one sinx and convert the rest to cos using
(sin^2)x) = 1 - ((cos^2)x
Trig Integrals:
Integrate ((sin^m)x)((cos^n)x)dx
If both m and n are even:
Use the identites:
((sin^2)x) = ((1-cos2x)/2)
((cos^2)x) = ((1+cos2x)/2)
Trig Integrals:
Integrate ((tan^m)x)((sec^n)x)dx
If n is even
Save on ((sec^2)x) and convert the rest to tan using ((sec^2)x) = ((tan^2)x) + 1
Trig Integrals:
Integrate ((tan^m)x)((sec^n)x)dx
If m is odd
Save a secxtanx and convert the rest to sec using
((tan^2)x) = ((sec^2)x) - 1
Trig Integrals:
Integrate ((tan^m)x)((sec^n)x)dx
If m is even and n is odd
Convert everything to sec and integrate by parts with
dv = ((sec^2)x)
Trig Integrals:
integrate ((tan^n)x)dx
convert one ((tan^2)x) to ((sec^2)x) -1 split the problem into two integrals
Trig Integrals:
Integrate secx dx
= ln |secx + tanx| + C
Trig Substitution:
a^2 - (b^2)(x^2)
x = (a/b)sin(theta)
Trig Substitution:
(b^2)(x^2) + a^2
x = (a/b)tan(theta)
Trig Substitution:
(b^2)(x^2) - a^2
x = (a/b)sec(theta)
Trig Substitution:
If the integrand involves ax^2 + bx + c:
complete the square to get it into the form a(x-h)^2 + k.
After factoring out the a and applying the substitution
u = x - h, the integrand will then fit one of the three forms
Volume of Rotation: If the axis of rotation is parallel to the axis of integration (horizontal line, integrating in x, or vertical line, integrating in y) Then you want to use which method.
Washer Method
V = integrate [a, b] (pi * (R^2 - r^2))
