  • Hey my prof never answered this question clearly but how do you know when to use substitution or integration by parts?

  • @jumpeygirl101 that is cause there is not a clear answer to your question. it just depends.

  • why are you left handed?

  • @TrololoBBQ probably no one knows the real answer to that question. sounds like a good one to me

  • At your first example your forgot to write dv=e^(-x)*dx,

  • how do u integrate xlnx dx?

  • YOU DA MAN!!!!!!!

  • You explained in 8 minutes what my professor couldn't make clear in an 80 minute lecture. Thank you.

  • Thank you!

  • instead of going to my calc lectures, i just watch a patrickjmt video instead. thank you so much!

  • fuck 33 dislikers 

  • thank u

    

  • i think you stuffed up your udv ... it should be x5^x not (x5^x)/ln5

  • Thanks for the help

  • Thank you so very much for making these videos. xxx

  • I wanted to share a little acronym I learned to know which term is u, it's called LIPET.

    Logs (i.e. ln 5)

    Inverse trig functions (1 / (x^2 +1))

    Polynomials (x^2)

    Exponential functions (e^x)

    Trig functions (sin x)

    Hope this helps somebody

  • iLate - no, apple. just no.

  • Thanks, had problem with this exact excercise.

  • Could someone help me out with this ? :/

    Integrate (x+2/(sinx)^2)

  • this is good. youre very helpful thank you :)

  • Please can you solve a complicated problem for the double integral...

    btw YOUR THE BEST !

  • while integrating dv...why don't you add constant of integration?

  • well after terribly failing calc II last semester, i managed to pass it this semester with a 75%! thanks to mostly you sir. you are great!

  • I'm sooo glad that I found you .. thank you a million

    you helped me big time

  • thanks a lot

  • Thanks a lot and I am proud of you!!!!

  • I am rusty on my integration,but IBP isn't too hard. IMO, I thought integration using partial fractions is easy to forget cuz you need to remember the different cases where you rewrite the fraction differently.

  • please how i can solve this !!!

    integral ln (x) / (X^2+1) dx

    @patrickJMT

  • you're a life saver..thank you

  • you're an amazing teacher for real. you make things so easy to understand. THANK YOU.

  • how can i solve integration of (2x+4)/(x^2+4x-5) using integration by parts? i noe there are others easier method to solve it but i hope to solve tis using integration by parts

  • Im so happy you made this video. Is it possible that a problem would require you to do integration by parts twice...meaning if the integral isnt working so you do integration by parts of the sub integral? Thanks

  • @ian559fresno yes that is possible. an example would be in the case of integral of (x^2)cosx

  • @chocoman39197 NO!! that sucks...now I know whats going to be on my test unfortunately :(

  • @ian559fresno haha good luck man

  • J: Jesus of

    M: Math

    T: Teachers

  • thank you thank you thank you thank you SOO much

    you don't understand how much you've helped me for my test!! i would die to have you as my teacher and your writing is extremely neat =\ THANK GOD FOR U lol

  • How do you intergrate acrsin(x/2)?

    

  • @superandy456 by using integration by parts

  • He makes it all sooo easy that even I learned how to do this. Now I'm going to impress everyone in my calc one class lol

  • How would you go about with definite integrals? Would I integrate everything as if it was indefinite, then just apply the lower and upper x limits?

  • thanks so much! :)

  • @ilovecorn97

    Integration is a part of calculus, you won't learn this until later in high school or early university depending on what you study

  • how old are you guys? because i'll be in secondary 3 next year (9th grade) and integration is in my math textbook

  • is there a rule of thumb of when to use "method of substitution" or "integration by parts"?

  • @kenikozo Usually you would take the anti-derivative right away, if you can't then you would use U-substitution, and if that doesn't work out, then as a last resort you use integration by parts. For the u-substitution, I always just look at the integral to see if I can take the derivative of something and it equals another part of the integral. It comes with practice, just do more examples, and you'll have it in no time.

  • I missed the lecture where my prof taught all this integral stuff. Now you can imagine my frustration trying to learn this from my notes and textbook. Uh, no. Fail!

    So glad I found this video! You've been such a great help!

    Thank you for these videos, it's perfect for people like me, who're not so bright in math to begin with!

  • Patrick.. u r awesome

  • Thanks for the videos! I learned this a while ago, and I couldn't remember it exactly

  • @CLyane yes, it is easy to forget this stuff if you do not use it!

  • Comment removed

  • why are all left handed people geniuses??

  • Thank you so much! :D

  • People always ask me where I want to go to college. From now on I will say 'Wherever patrickJMT is teaching.' :)

  • @lingolatz you will have to move inside of youtube : )

  • @patrickJMT I shall do it :o.

  • Can you make a video on Tabular's method

  • i really loved u alot .. u r muchhhhhhhh better than our complicated math teacher >>!

  • mate you rescue a crises thanks a lot from Saudi Arabia

  • Comment removed

  • You really are the best teacher, your videos are simple,easy and interesting. They help me so much you have no idea.....i'm so grateful!!! thank you,

    WE LOVE YOU patrickJMT

  • @SunnyNinanna : )  : )

  • hey thnx ..its really helpful....

  • i've been trying to figure out what shall i do regarding to integration by parts around a week but once i saw your video i realize how to use integration by parts... thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you sooooo much

    i wish all the lecturers teaching as you in the university.;.

  • @fjbutch please do not feed the trolls in my videos.

  • Wow, you sure make calculus look as simple as "2+2". You have helped me so much thank you for this video, i now moved from a C+ in AP Calc to an A-. TY so much. But this video made me realize that am lost with integration and differentiation of logarithms and "e". Could you please make a video specifically about this? This *can* be a broad subject within itself... Ty

  • @drizzy8450 well, there are quite a few videos involving with integration and differentiation of logs. typically with logs, you are using a u-sub or integration by parts.

  • Sir, please tell me you are a Calculus professor somewhere. Tell me that there is some group of people this lucky.

  • I literally spent an hour in class this morning watching my old Calc professor speed through this and not understanding one thing. I come home desperately searching the internet to understand this stuff. First I get to the Wikipedia page, only to quickly close it because it's confusing as hell. Then I see this video. Dude you are awesome. You make Calc so digestible and easy to understand.

  • @KimJong7hrill come back whenever : ) Tons of calc 2 stuff, check out the playlists as well! Spread the gospel to your friends!

  • @patrickJMT

    I gave out your Youtube username to my class. We are all teaching ourselves this stuff pretty much.

  • I love you. You make Calculus so easy.

  • another year of school ... but hey! That means we meet again (well not personally although that'd be cool) with your awesome math videos!

  • Comment removed

  • @fjbutch basic calculus

  • @patrickJMT Thanks...

  • @fjbutch I understand what you're asking.. this is just practice, but calculus/integration has a lot of real world applications, especially in engineering.. for example you can use integration to work out the area of a geometrically irregular shape.

  • @dmmchn Thanks. I appreciate your reply.

  • Learning Advanced Calculus on my own for college credit. You've totally saved my ass. Thank you!

  • iPhone app, where's the android app? We want loved too....

    On a side note, thank you for all the help, really do appreciate it.

  • wow stared at the textbook for 10 minutes like a dead zombie watched the first 3 minutes and know the chapter... thank you so much patrickjmt, youtube and internet!

  • appreciate it, helped me on my quiz today :)

  • awesome, you are a good teacher, thanks for the help!

  • Vary good.

  • The energy you put in these videos makes me want to do calc in my spare time. Thanks for these videos.

  • wheres your introduction/basics of integration video?

  • @TheNumber2Pencil546 check out the playlists, everything is in order. you can also look on my website. the calculus videos are in order.

  • Please I will like to know when to use Integration by parts and U subsitution

  • I used your videos in high school.

    I still use them in college.

    You are my hero.

  • Thanks for the video- it's been 4 years since I had calc, and I'm starting physical chemistry today >.<

  • @ThugRandles it will come back to you, don't worry!

  • You are singlehandedly teaching me calculus.

  • Revising for exam, forgot how to do intergration by parts, not only did this remind me, but taught me the moving of constants out of integration (the final part where 1 / ln5). I did know this, but jesus I would have walked in to that exam clueless of this. Thanks a lot buddy.

  • You should have started with a much simpler example...the first one, xe^-x wasn't a good choice for someone that just wants to grasp the basics of integration by parts...

  • @lillibeth13 This method is usually around the time that you start Calc II, if you don't know how to differentiate x and take the integral of e^x, you shouldn't have passed Calc I lol

  • @JahRo225 The derivative x is 1 and the integral of e^x is e^x...MOREOVER, the example used in this video was xe^-x *not* x. So don't come at me with that you shouldn't have passed Calc 1 bs cause I got an A in Calc I believe it or not.

  • So where's the problem...? You just use the formula. This is probably one of the easiest combinations of 2 functions to take an integral of.. lol

  • @JahRo225 you are more than welcome to make your own videos and enlighten the world with your profound intellect. or, just keepin' trolling. i assume you will pick the latter.

  • @JahRo225 hahahaha, or better yet, keep making your reviews of knives. what a little trooper you are. lmfao!

  • @lillibeth13 beth, rule #1 on youtube: do not feed the trolls. : ) although i am guilty of it too!

  • yo, can you do integration by parts and variable substitution at the same time?

  • Isn't the answer has to equal to -xe^-x -e^-x*x+c , because du=1dx so when you integrate 1 is going to equal x

  • Comment removed

  • so I think it's true

    lefties are better at mathematics

  • thank you so much. like for reeeeal thank youuuuuuu!!!!

  • thanks a lot

    it was very helpful

  • I am not good arithmetic but you are genius

  • Great tips

  • This video is great

  • Thank you for sharing

  • Your fantastic. So far you're helping me successfully get through my calc 2 class. Much love!

  • wow, this is going right into my notes. great video.

    and to all the people saying you don't explain the basic laws of integration this isn't integration 101. it's assumed you learned the basics first before trying more advanced integrals.

  • I have to be able to do the V without a calculator and I can't figure out how...Can you tell me please?

  • can you explain how to get V? you have to integrate e to the negative x but can you show the work ?

  • Really good tutorials, cheers mate!

  • u just saved my life :D

  • Great teacher, great video; thanks a lot

  • Thank U

  • WONDERFUL

  • Interesting..My professor used the same first two exemples in class yesterday.

  • where does he get the C?

  • @anthsossoo

    C is any constant. You know that the integration of a function is the antiderivative of that function. Since the derivative of a constant is equal to 0, there is a possibility that the function you're trying to integrate may have a constant in its antiderivative.

  • @HistoryMaker91 Thanks for the information. I understand what that C means and where it comes from

  • is there like a basic video showing the laws and so on of integration. this is kinda confusing if you know nothing. i learned differentiation from nothing watching your vids. i rly hate reading 20 pages of my text to understand a concept. the integration chapter is like 80 pages :o

  • i usually love your videos , i have found them helpful in the last two years but this one honestly you made it seem more confusing to me than i thought it was

  • You're a horrible calculus teacher. You're supposed to make little to no sense, not be helpful at all, and most importantly solve equation wrong. All jokes, this is fantastic =)

  • @JoNnYShizzle And then chew the class out for their subsequently bad grades!

  • @tylerj26 My class average on our final was 53% <3 XOXO Calculus teacher that shall remain unnamed

  • I'm not sure how quick you could answer this but my exams on Monday and I have never seen the integration of 5^x as 5^x/ln5...could you or anyone explain this with other examples?

    Thanks in advance.

  • @Afrowijjy since e^ln(5)=5 you can just substitute in e^ln(5) for 5. so therefor 5^x=e^ln(5)x and you can easily integrate it that way. though since i see you posted that over a month ago you've probably figured that out by now.

  • Thank you :)

  • thank you sooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!

  • I was about to email you, but then I re watched your video and it all makes sense now.

  • why not pull out the (1/ln(5)) at the end? it seems like it would have made it easier

  • Mate your a goon you single handedly got me through uni maths

  • You're amazing! Thank you for giving up your time to teach math to those of us who have shitty professors and horrid textbooks. :)

  • for picking U=, i was thought to remember the pneumonic tool called L.I.A.T.E (light)

    Logs.Inverse.Algebraic.Trigono­metric.Exponential.

    should be the order in which you should pick u from. so if the parts were

    Cos(x)*x,

    since x is "algebraic", and comes before trigonometric, x should be U :)

  • @SGvince22 i was taught to use I.L.A.T.E.......(i am late)....inverse trig function should come before log because logs are easier to integrate than inverse trigs

  • @GeekyDicky 我的错 ;$

  • I love you man. You are amazing. You just taught me, in 8 minutes, what I've been trying to learn for a whole year at school.

  • Thank you so much

    

  • just a general Q= is it possible to integrate lnx without integration by parts..?

  • Patrick you saved me .. I love you 

  • Do you have any videos on the basics of antidifferentiation? I tried searching your videos but couldn't find any.

  • I was worried about this topic becuz I overslept on friday lesson which my maths teacher was supposed to teach this topic. Reading the textbook was a total eyesore since it is so dry.

    And then I happen to stumble upon this video and I say WOW. It is that simple? I can't believe it. Thanks so much for creating this video. Totally awesome~

  • Great Video. When you say you choose "u" to be the easier of the two to derive.. Actually, you could choose 'u' based on the order: Integer, Logarithmic, Algebraic, Trigonometric and Expronential function last. Cheers

  • ap exam tomorrow....thx for video!!

  • ap exams tomorrow....thx for video!!

  • Even though i learned this already but im still here to thump up and like the video. Thanks patrickJMT

  • I forget the "+ C" 99% of the time

  • Just before 7 mins you have integrated dv=5^x to get v=(5^x)/ln5. What is the rule or it's name?Just so i cna look it up and understand what's going on in that part. Thanks :)

  • Just before 7 mins you have integrated dv=5^x to get v=(5^x)/ln5. What is the rule or it's name?Just so i cna look it up and understand what's going on in that part. Thanks :)

  • Thanks

  • you got any android apps??

  • THANK YOU.

  • Is there a proof for the formula for integration by parts?

  • @Bleachnarutoawesome yes, it is very simple in fact. you are just reversing the product rule.

  • @patrickJMT weh? its easy with this question! what if you find a question who's more complicated?

  • THANK YOU ! SO MUCCCH !! ;)

  • Your hand writing is just as clear as your explanation. Great job!

  • I have a question that tells me to use IBP on tan^-1(x) dx.

    How do I identify u and dv ? D:

    (btw, your videos are amazing)

  • @ronniemonnie nevermind, got to the second question of your video =P. I was getting a little ahead of myself

  • this is awesome. thank you so much!

  • cheers buddy! Great help

  • Well Being the class nerd already this will expand my knowledge even further :) Thanks! 4-9-11

  • I spent 2 weeks attending class with absolutely no clue what the professor was doing. Then I spent 5 minutes watching this and understood everything. THANKS!!

  • thanks for the video, this really helped refresh my memory. :)

  • hi

    

  • omg 666 likes. That's scary. I liked it so now it should be 667 XO

  • ! Im a mechanical engineering student and now im done in integral / differential calculus with a big help of this man, .you are my best teacher. i aced in our class with the help of this..my grades are very good because of this..thank you very much and keep up the good work!..i will start studying differential equations with this videos this vacation..THANK YOU

    I SURVIVED WITHOUT BUYING EXPENSIVE BOOKS BECAUSE OF THIS! GOD BLESS

    03-26-11

  • Why couldn't you be my calc teacher :(

    If i had you as my teacher i bet i would be more confident for my Ap exam :s

  • 多谢多谢

  • @Beijing4Life 欢迎您

  • @patrickJMT wow u know chinese :D

  • @patrickJMT I see google translate failure there, you're welcome in mandarin is 不客气 lol.
