Alternative General Guidelines for Choosing u and dv: A. Let dv be the most complicated portion of the integrand that can be “easily’ integrated. B. Let u be that portion of the integrand whose derivative du is a “simpler” function than u itself. Example: ∫ x3 4 − x 2 dx *Since both of these are algebraic functions, the LIATE Rule of Thumb is not helpful. Applying Part (A) of the alternative guidelines above, we see that x 4 − x 2 is the “most complicated part of the integrand that can easily be integrated.” Therefore: dv = x 4 − x 2 dx u = x 2 (remaining factor in integrand) du = 2x dx 1 v = x 4 − x 2 dx = − (−2x)(4 − x 2 )1/ 2 dx ∫∫2 ⎛ 1 ⎞⎛ 2 ⎞ 1 = ⎜− ⎟⎜ ⎟ (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 = − (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 ⎝ 2 ⎠⎝ 3 ⎠ 3 ∫∫x3 4 − x3 dx = uv − vdu ⎛ 1 ⎞ 1 = (x 2 )⎜− (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 ⎟ − − (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 (2x) dx ⎝ 3 ⎠ ∫ 3 − x 2 1 = (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 − (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 (−2x) dx 3 3 ∫ − x 2 1 ⎛ 2 ⎞ = (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 − (4 − x 2 )5 / 2 ⎜ ⎟ + C 3 3 ⎝ 5 ⎠ − x 2 2 = (4 − x 2 )3 / 2 − (4 − x 2 )5 / 2 + C Answer 3 15 www.rit.edu/asc Page 3 of 7 III. Using repeated Applications of Integration by Parts: Sometimes integration by parts must be repeated to obtain an answer. Note: DO NOT switch choices for u and dv in successive applications. Example: ∫ x 2 sin x dx u = x 2 (Algebraic Function) dv = sin x dx (Trig Function) du = 2x dx v = ∫sin x dx = −cos x ∫ x 2 sin x dx = uv − ∫ vdu = x 2 (−cos x) − ∫ − cos x 2x dx = −x 2 cos x + 2 ∫ x cos x dx Second application of integration by parts: u = x (Algebraic function) (Making “same” choices for u and dv) dv = cos x (Trig function) du = dx v = ∫ cos x dx = sin x ∫ x 2 sin x dx = −x 2 cos x + 2 [uv − ∫ vdu] = −x 2 cos x + 2 [x sin x − ∫sin x dx] = −x 2 cos x + 2 [x sin x + cos x + c] = −x 2 cos x + 2x sin x + 2cos x + c Answer www.rit.edu/asc Page 4 of 7 Note: After each application of integration by parts, watch for the appearance of a constant multiple of the original integral. Example: ∫ e x cos x dx u = cos x (Trig function) dv = e x dx (Exponential function) du = −sin x dx v = ∫ e x dx = e x ∫ e x cos x dx = uv − ∫ vdu = cos x e x − ∫ e x (−sin x) dx = cos x e x + ∫ e x sin x dx Second application of integration by parts: u = sin x (Trig function) (Making “same” choices for u and dv) dv = e x dx (Exponential function) du = cos x dx v = ∫ e x dx = e x ∫ e x cos x dx = e x cos x + (uv − ∫ vdu) ∫ e x cos x dx = e x cos x + sin x e x − ∫ e x cos x dx Note appearance of original integral on right side of equation.

  • A Quotient Rule Integration by Parts Formula Jennifer Switkes ([email protected]), California State Polytechnic Univer- Sity, Pomona, CA 91768
    A Quotient Rule Integration by Parts Formula Jennifer Switkes ([email protected]), California State Polytechnic Univer- sity, Pomona, CA 91768 In a recent calculus course, I introduced the technique of Integration by Parts as an integration rule corresponding to the Product Rule for differentiation. I showed my students the standard derivation of the Integration by Parts formula as presented in [1]: By the Product Rule, if f (x) and g(x) are differentiable functions, then d f (x)g(x) = f (x)g(x) + g(x) f (x). dx Integrating on both sides of this equation, f (x)g(x) + g(x) f (x) dx = f (x)g(x), which may be rearranged to obtain f (x)g(x) dx = f (x)g(x) − g(x) f (x) dx. Letting U = f (x) and V = g(x) and observing that dU = f (x) dx and dV = g(x) dx, we obtain the familiar Integration by Parts formula UdV= UV − VdU. (1) My student Victor asked if we could do a similar thing with the Quotient Rule. While the other students thought this was a crazy idea, I was intrigued. Below, I derive a Quotient Rule Integration by Parts formula, apply the resulting integration formula to an example, and discuss reasons why this formula does not appear in calculus texts. By the Quotient Rule, if f (x) and g(x) are differentiable functions, then ( ) ( ) ( ) − ( ) ( ) d f x = g x f x f x g x . dx g(x) [g(x)]2 Integrating both sides of this equation, we get f (x) g(x) f (x) − f (x)g(x) = dx.

  • Infinitesimal Calculus
    Infinitesimal Calculus Δy ΔxΔy and “cannot stand” Δx • Derivative of the sum/difference of two functions (x + Δx) ± (y + Δy) = (x + y) + Δx + Δy ∴ we have a change of Δx + Δy. • Derivative of the product of two functions (x + Δx)(y + Δy) = xy + Δxy + xΔy + ΔxΔy ∴ we have a change of Δxy + xΔy. • Derivative of the product of three functions (x + Δx)(y + Δy)(z + Δz) = xyz + Δxyz + xΔyz + xyΔz + xΔyΔz + ΔxΔyz + xΔyΔz + ΔxΔyΔ ∴ we have a change of Δxyz + xΔyz + xyΔz. • Derivative of the quotient of three functions x Let u = . Then by the product rule above, yu = x yields y uΔy + yΔu = Δx. Substituting for u its value, we have xΔy Δxy − xΔy + yΔu = Δx. Finding the value of Δu , we have y y2 • Derivative of a power function (and the “chain rule”) Let y = x m . ∴ y = x ⋅ x ⋅ x ⋅...⋅ x (m times). By a generalization of the product rule, Δy = (xm−1Δx)(x m−1Δx)(x m−1Δx)...⋅ (xm −1Δx) m times. ∴ we have Δy = mx m−1Δx. • Derivative of the logarithmic function Let y = xn , n being constant. Then log y = nlog x. Differentiating y = xn , we have dy dy dy y y dy = nxn−1dx, or n = = = , since xn−1 = . Again, whatever n−1 y dx x dx dx x x x the differentials of log x and log y are, we have d(log y) = n ⋅ d(log x), or d(log y) n = . Placing these values of n equal to each other, we obtain d(log x) dy d(log y) y dy = .

  • Derivative, Gradient, and Lagrange Multipliers
    EE263 Prof. S. Boyd Derivative, Gradient, and Lagrange Multipliers Derivative Suppose f : Rn → Rm is differentiable. Its derivative or Jacobian at a point x ∈ Rn is × denoted Df(x) ∈ Rm n, defined as ∂fi (Df(x))ij = , i =1, . , m, j =1,...,n. ∂x j x The first order Taylor expansion of f at (or near) x is given by fˆ(y)= f(x)+ Df(x)(y − x). When y − x is small, f(y) − fˆ(y) is very small. This is called the linearization of f at (or near) x. As an example, consider n = 3, m = 2, with 2 x1 − x f(x)= 2 . x1x3 Its derivative at the point x is 1 −2x2 0 Df(x)= , x3 0 x1 and its first order Taylor expansion near x = (1, 0, −1) is given by 1 1 1 0 0 fˆ(y)= + y − 0 . −1 −1 0 1 −1 Gradient For f : Rn → R, the gradient at x ∈ Rn is denoted ∇f(x) ∈ Rn, and it is defined as ∇f(x)= Df(x)T , the transpose of the derivative. In terms of partial derivatives, we have ∂f ∇f(x)i = , i =1,...,n. ∂x i x The first order Taylor expansion of f at x is given by fˆ(x)= f(x)+ ∇f(x)T (y − x). 1 Gradient of affine and quadratic functions You can check the formulas below by working out the partial derivatives. For f affine, i.e., f(x)= aT x + b, we have ∇f(x)= a (independent of x). × For f a quadratic form, i.e., f(x)= xT Px with P ∈ Rn n, we have ∇f(x)=(P + P T )x.

  • Chain Rule & Implicit Differentiation
    INTRODUCTION The chain rule and implicit differentiation are techniques used to easily differentiate otherwise difficult equations. Both use the rules for derivatives by applying them in slightly different ways to differentiate the complex equations without much hassle. In this presentation, both the chain rule and implicit differentiation will be shown with applications to real world problems. DEFINITION Chain Rule Implicit Differentiation A way to differentiate A way to take the derivative functions within of a term with respect to functions. another variable without having to isolate either variable. HISTORY The Chain Rule is thought to have first originated from the German mathematician Gottfried W. Leibniz. Although the memoir it was first found in contained various mistakes, it is apparent that he used chain rule in order to differentiate a polynomial inside of a square root. Guillaume de l'Hôpital, a French mathematician, also has traces of the chain rule in his Analyse des infiniment petits. HISTORY Implicit differentiation was developed by the famed physicist and mathematician Isaac Newton. He applied it to various physics problems he came across. In addition, the German mathematician Gottfried W. Leibniz also developed the technique independently of Newton around the same time period. EXAMPLE 1: CHAIN RULE Find the derivative of the following using chain rule y=(x2+5x3-16)37 EXAMPLE 1: CHAIN RULE Step 1: Define inner and outer functions y=(x2+5x3-16)37 EXAMPLE 1: CHAIN RULE Step 2: Differentiate outer function via power rule y’=37(x2+5x3-16)36 EXAMPLE 1: CHAIN RULE Step 3: Differentiate inner function and multiply by the answer from the previous step y’=37(x2+5x3-16)36(2x+15x2) EXAMPLE 2: CHAIN RULE A biologist must use the chain rule to determine how fast a given bacteria population is growing at a given point in time t days later.

Theory To differentiate a product of two functions of x, one uses the product rule: d dv du (uv) = u + v dx dx dx where u = u (x) and v = v (x) are two functions of x. A slight rearrangement of the product rule gives dv d du u = (uv) − v dx dx dx Now, integrating both sides with respect to x results in Z dv Z du u dx = uv − v dx dx dx This gives us a rule for integration, called INTEGRATION BY PARTS, that allows us to integrate many products of functions of x. We take one factor in this product to be u (this also appears on du the right-hand-side, along with dx ). The other factor is taken to dv be dx (on the right-hand-side only v appears – i.e. the other factor integrated with respect to x). Toc JJ II J I Back Section 2: Usage 4 2.

  • 1. Antiderivatives for Exponential Functions Recall That for F(X) = Ec⋅X, F ′(X) = C ⋅ Ec⋅X (For Any Constant C)
    1. Antiderivatives for exponential functions Recall that for f(x) = ec⋅x, f ′(x) = c ⋅ ec⋅x (for any constant c). That is, ex is its own derivative. So it makes sense that it is its own antiderivative as well! Theorem 1.1 (Antiderivatives of exponential functions). Let f(x) = ec⋅x for some 1 constant c. Then F x ec⋅c D, for any constant D, is an antiderivative of ( ) = c + f(x). 1 c⋅x ′ 1 c⋅x c⋅x Proof. Consider F (x) = c e +D. Then by the chain rule, F (x) = c⋅ c e +0 = e . So F (x) is an antiderivative of f(x). Of course, the theorem does not work for c = 0, but then we would have that f(x) = e0 = 1, which is constant. By the power rule, an antiderivative would be F (x) = x + C for some constant C. 1 2. Antiderivative for f(x) = x We have the power rule for antiderivatives, but it does not work for f(x) = x−1. 1 However, we know that the derivative of ln(x) is x . So it makes sense that the 1 antiderivative of x should be ln(x). Unfortunately, it is not. But it is close. 1 1 Theorem 2.1 (Antiderivative of f(x) = x ). Let f(x) = x . Then the antiderivatives of f(x) are of the form F (x) = ln(SxS) + C. Proof. Notice that ln(x) for x > 0 F (x) = ln(SxS) = . ln(−x) for x < 0 ′ 1 For x > 0, we have [ln(x)] = x .

  • Antiderivatives Math 121 Calculus II D Joyce, Spring 2013
    Antiderivatives Math 121 Calculus II D Joyce, Spring 2013 Antiderivatives and the constant of integration. We'll start out this semester talking about antiderivatives. If the derivative of a function F isf, that is, F 0 = f, then we say F is an antiderivative of f. Of course, antiderivatives are important in solving problems when you know a derivative but not the function, but we'll soon see that lots of questions involving areas, volumes, and other things also come down to finding antiderivatives. That connection we'll see soon when we study the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). For now, we'll just stick to the basic concept of antiderivatives. We can find antiderivatives of polynomials pretty easily. Suppose that we want to find an antiderivative F (x) of the polynomial f(x) = 4x3 + 5x2 − 3x + 8: We can find one by finding an antiderivative of each term and adding the results together. Since the derivative of x4 is 4x3, therefore an antiderivative of 4x3 is x4. It's not much harder to find an antiderivative of 5x2. Since the derivative of x3 is 3x2, an antiderivative of 5x2 is 5 3 3 x . Continue on and soon you see that an antiderivative of f(x) is 4 5 3 3 2 F (x) = x + 3 x − 2 x + 8x: There are, however, other antiderivatives of f(x). Since the derivative of a constant is 0, 4 5 3 3 2 we can add any constant to F (x) to find another antiderivative. Thus, x + 3 x − 2 x +8x+7 4 5 3 3 2 is another antiderivative of f(x).

  • Derivatives and Antiderivatives
    Lesson R MA 16020 Nick Egbert Note. There should be no new information in this lesson. This is a brief review of things you should have learned in Calculus I, but certainly not exhaustive. Derivatives and antiderivatives There are several derivative anti derivative rules that you should have pretty well-memorized at this point: It is very important that you know these well to make the transition into this course go smoothly. Definition. Given a continuous function f(x), if F 0(x) = f(x); we say that F (x) is an antiderivative of f(x); and we write Z F (x) = f(x) dx: 1 Lesson R MA 16020 Nick Egbert Remark. If F (x) is an antiderivative of f(x) then the indefinite integral of f is given by Z f(x) dx = F (x) + C; where C is some constant. This means that any two functions which differ by only a constant will have the same antiderivative. Remark. We want to note a couple things about the notation R f(x)dx: 1. The process of computing R f(x)dx can be called antidifferentiation 5 integration 5 taking or evaluating the integral 2. f(5x) is called the integrand. 3. Writing the \dx" on the outside is essential. This tells us that we are integrating with respect to x. It will especially be important in MA 16020 when we start having integrals with more than one variable. Fundamental theorem of calculus Theorem. If f is a real-valued continuous function on the interval [a; b]; and F the antiderivative of f: Z x F (x) = f(t) dt; a Then F 0(x) = f(x) for all x in the interval (a; b): In particular, we have that Z b f(t) dt = F (b) − F (a): a This has an important geometric interpretation.
