Algebraic substitution Vs Trigonometric substitution |
|
|
Problem Evaluate
the integral: |
|
|
Algebraic substitution Let : From (1), Using logarithmic
differentiation, |
|
|
Trigonometric substitution Put x = sin q , Since x = sin q, From (6), |
|
|
Note The solution by algebraic
substitution as in (5), and by trigonometric substitution as in (7) seems not the same. Reader interested may try
to prove that the two solutions differ by a constant. |
