Study Guide, Chapter 8:  The following are similar to integrals on past tests:

 

1.  (Parts)

 

2.   or     (Separate into two fractions;  integration by substitution)

 

3.  (Integration by Parts)

 

4.  Find the volume of the solid formed when the region bounded by y=e−2x, y=0, x=0, x=ln(3) is revolved about

 

      a.   the y-axis.   [Evaluating the integral requires integration by parts]

 

      b.   the x-axis

 

 

5.   (Remember the identities for sin2x and cos2x)

 

6.  (Trig integrals)

 

7.    or  or  (Trig sub)

 

8.    (Start with long division)

 

9.  (Partial fraction -- possible take-home question)

 

 

10.  Evaluate an integral using a formula from a table of integrals.  [for an in-class question, the formula will be given; as a take-home question, the student will have to find the formula in the table of integrals, after u-substitution]

 

11.  Evaluate the integral of the function defined by the following table, using the trapezoidal rule, or Simpson's rule:

     

 

x

f(x)

 

3

0

 

5

3.00

 

7

7.65

 

9

13.39

 

11

20.00

 

12.  Consider the region under the curve y= above the x-axis, on the interval 1£x<¥.

a.  Sketch the region,

b.  Calculate its area,

c.  Calculate the volume of the solid formed by revolving the region about the x-axis.

      d.  Set up, but do not calculate, the integral for the length of the curve from x=1 to x=10.

 

Note:  You must know how to set up the integrals for

      a.   Areas (based on vertical rectangles)

      b.   Areas (based on horizontal rectangles)

      c.  Volumes of revolution (disk or washer method)

      d.   Volumes of revolution (cylinder method)

      e.   Arc Length (using x as the variable of integration)

      f.    Arc Length (using y as the variable of integration)
