When you plugged in u, you also said that -du=sinx dx. aren't you supposed to solve for dx? so, dx=-du/sinx. shouldn't you then plug in -du/sinx to replace the dx? you just plugged in du for dx. i'm confused.
When do you need to change the limits of integration????
I'm so confused because on most other integrals you don't need to change the limits, even if you use u-substitution... So when do you need to change them?
@mrhozer techincally you should always change the limits of integration when you do a substitution. if you leave the original ones, you are most likely writing something that is no longer equal. you may do it correctly at the end but you are writing incorrect statements.
You are awesome :) Thanks for helping out, and holy crap you have videos about everything! The AP test is tomorrow, you've probably got a ton of hits today on all calc videos :p
@geekgal1000 sorry to hear the test may not have went that well : ( if it makes you feel any better, i had some less than stellar calc tests as well. it is all part of it (unfortunately)
why is inverse tan (1) equal to x? while it can just be subtracted directly to inverse tan (1) - inverse tan (0) = pi/4??. i wanted to know clearly why he assumed to input something to X?. i need help in calculus please help me.
for a quicker way of integrating - like the example see if u can find the derivatives of eachother, in this case d(cosx)= - sinx, now since thers a -ve sign (representing the constant -1), you multiply the integral by -1 on the inside(numerator) and -1 on the outside of the integral, hence then substituting -sinx=d(cosx) back, making the subject the same which means: d(u)=d(cosx), and hence u^2 = (cosx)^2, and then completing the integral
I really like your videos! It was a bit hard for me to learn from Calculus the substitutions and so on, and our teacher isn't explaining as well as you do, so this is really good! It is a lot easier than to read it in a book too, because you explain in a simple and slow way. :)
@IrishPrid3 I know! All these textbooks have all this technical crap that they don't even explain. We need a textbook that can actually help us LEARN.
you have no idea just what a great help these videos are!! im studying chemical engineering and my days are exhausting! comming home and learning from the text book can be real tedious at times. thanx to your videos, it doesnt take me much time at all to grasp these concepts. thanx dude you rock!!
I haven't taken Calculus in almost 13 years, but I still watch Patrick's videos to keep me in check. I must soon make a donation to this fine, young man. And since the last example is pi over 4, is it possible that I could have a piece of that pi?
That was awesome ^_^
I have a similar example like the one that u solved
it is the integral of (xsinx dx/(1+cos^2) )
I couldnt solve it
so can u solve it for me ^_^

how do you know which trig function to use for u? why did you choose cosine?
mfrancoo27 2 months ago
@mfrancoo27 Because the derivative of cosine is sine, thus du=sin(x)dx and the sin(x) on top disappears during the substitution.

@mrhozer new variable, new limits. switch back to original variable, use original limits
patrickJMT 3 months ago
@patrickJMT So do you always need to switch all the variables in the function to the terms of u when you do u-substitution?

@mrhozer techincally you should always change the limits of integration when you do a substitution. if you leave the original ones, you are most likely writing something that is no longer equal. you may do it correctly at the end but you are writing incorrect statements.

mrhozer 3 months ago
@patrickJMT in 1=tan(x), instead of using pi/4, could we use pi/3? pi/3 is something like 1. 04
and pi/4 is also something like 0.7

thanks...would it be the same to use these formulas if they apply?
arcsin(u/a)= ∫(du/(square root of a^2-x^2)
(1/a)arctan(u/a)= ∫(du/a^2+x^2)
(1/a)arcsec(|u|/a)= ∫(du/u*(squareroot of)u^2-a^2))
