MATH 163 — HOMEWORK Week 2, due Wednesday September 9th

Remember to work each classday on the problems listed for that day.

TOPICS
1. Trigonometric integrals.
Reading: 8.2
Integration by parts. Be familiar with classical examples such as
Z Z Z Z Z
xex dx , x sin(x) dx , x2 ex dx , x2 sin(x) dx , sin(x)ex dx ,

Trigonometric integrals. Here we only focus on simple examples which may require using the
identities
sin2 (x) + cos2 (x) = 1 , tan2 (x) + 1 = sec2 (x) ,
or
1 − cos(2x) 1 + cos(2x)
sin2 (x) = , cos2 (x) = .

2. Inverse Trigonometric functions (§7.6)

◦ The functions sin−1 (x), cos−1 (x), tan−1 (x), sec−1 (x). Graphs. Domains. Values at sample
points. Using triangles to find identities. Limits.
◦ Derivatives of arcsin(x), arccos(x), arctan(x), arcsec(x). Examples combining with chain rule.
(Memorize only derivatives of arcsin, arctan and arcsec.)
R Integrals using substitution, integration by parts, completing the square when nec-

essary. tan−1 (x) dx.
◦ Time permitting: Trigonetric substitution (should really be called inverse trigonometric sub-
stitution). Use it to find the area of a circle.
