1.1 The first type of substitution method

Introduced: Starting from differentiated number

  • When differentiate counting, what is the core method?
  • 1. algebraic manipulation rules (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division);
  • 2. composite function differentiate method;
  • The implicit differentiation method and the parametric equation differentiation method are the conclusions of the first two;
  • Reverse process
  • So when considering the inverse process of differentiate number, you can consider the inverse process based on two points 1 and 2;
  • composite function
  • Reverse the process of composite function differentiate method ->Substitution integral method;
  • algebraic manipulation law
  • Inverse -> integral method by parts;
  • Multiplication ->integration by parts;

1.1.1 Basic concepts of the first type of substitution method

#####Theorem: # The first kind of substitution method: the differential method

Description: If $\int f(u)\mathrm{d}u=F(u)+C$, then $\int f[\varphi(x)]\varphi^{\prime}(x)\operatorname{d}x=\int f[\varphi(x)]\operatorname{d}\varphi(x)=F[\varphi(x)]+C$

Explanation

  • Common situations:
  • $\frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}}=2d\sqrt{x}$

Example

  • Example: $\int e^x\mathrm{d}x=e^x+c$
  • currently $\int xe^{x^2}dx=\frac12\int e^{x^2}(x^2)dx=\frac12\int e^{x^2}dx^2=\frac12e^{x^2}+c^2$
  • In order to use the conclusion of $\int e^x\mathrm{d}x=e^x+c$ above, write it in the form of $\frac12\int e^{x^2}dx^2$;
  • This step is to make up the differential;

1.1.2 Examples

Example: $\int(1+3x)^{100}dx$

  • Analysis
  • Because the integrated object is a composite function, you can first consider how to convert it into a simple one, you can use the form of a formula:
  • $\int u^{100}du=\frac1{101}u^{101}+c$
  • Analysis
  • $\int(1+3x)^{100}dx=\frac13\int(1+3x)^{100}d(1+3x)=\frac1{303}(1+3x)^{101}+C$
  • Made up a $1+3x$ of $d$
  • problem type: # differential differential method

Example: $\int\frac{dx}{a^2+x^2}$

  • Analysis
  • Because
  • Analysis
  • $\int\frac{dx}{a^{2}+x^{2}}=\frac{1}{a}\int\frac{d\frac{x}{a}}{1+(\frac{x}{a})^{2}}=\frac{1}{a}\operatorname{arcc}t, \frac{x}{a}+C^{1}$
  • problem type: # differential differential method

Example: $\int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1-x^2-2x}}$

  • Analysis
  • $17, \int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}=\begin{cases}\arcsin x+C\\-\arccos x+C&\end{cases}$
  • Analysis
  • $\int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1-x^2-2x}}=\int\frac{d(x+1)}{\sqrt{2-(x+1)^2}}$ = $\arcsin\frac{x+1}{\sqrt{2}}+c$
  • problem type: # differential differential method

1.1.3 Summary of differential forms

Common functions

  • 1. $$\int f( ax+ b) dx= \frac 1a\int f( ax+ b)d( ax+ b)$$
  • 2. $$\int x^mf( ax^{m+ 1}+ b)dx=\frac 1{( m+ 1) a}\int f( ax^{m+ 1}+ b)d(ax^{m+1}+ b)\quad\quad\quad ( m\neq- 1) $$
  • 3. $$\int f( \sqrt {x}) \frac {\mathrm{d} x}{\sqrt {x}}= 2\int f( \sqrt {x})d( \sqrt x)$$
  • 4. $$\int f( e^x) \mathrm{e} ^xdx= \int f( \mathrm{e} ^x)d(\mathrm{e} ^x)$$
  • 5. $$\int f(\ln x)\: \frac{1}{x}\mathrm{d}x=\int f(\ln x)\mathrm{d}(\ln x)$$

Common trigonometric functions make up the differential

  • 1. $$\int f(\sin x)\cos\: x\mathrm{d}x=\int f(\sin x)\mathrm{d}(\sin x)$$
  • 2. $${\int}f(\cos x)\sin x\mathrm{d}x=-{\int}f(\cos x)\mathrm{d}(\cos x)$$
  • 3. $$\int f(\tan x)\: \frac{1}{\cos^{2}x}\mathrm{d}x=\int f(\tan x)\mathrm{d}(\tan x)$$
  • 4. $${\int}f(\arcsin x)\: \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\mathrm{d}x=\int f(\arcsin x)\mathrm{d}(\arcsin x)$$
  • 5. $${\int}f(\arctan x)\: \frac1{1+x^2}\mathrm{d}x=\int f(\arctan x)\mathrm{d}(\arctan x)$$

1.2 The second type of substitution method

1.2.1 Basic concepts of the second type of substitution method

#####Theorem: # second kind of substitution method

Description: If $x=\varphi(t)$ is monotone and differentiable with $\varphi'(t)\neq0$, then $\int f(\varphi(t))\varphi'(t)\,dt=F(\varphi(t))+C$.
Formula: $\int f(x)\mathrm{d}x=\int f[\varphi(t)]\varphi^{\prime}(t)\mathrm{d}t=F(t)+C=F[\varphi^{-1}(x)]+C, $

Explanation

  • Method:
  • The key is the selection of variable substitution. -> replaces the x band, and replaces the band with other functions. After -> produces the result, it must be brought back with the inverse function;
  • Example:
  • antiderivative: $\int\frac{x^2}{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}dx$ -> Replace x with: $x=a\sin t$ -> Get the function after substitution: $\int\frac{a^2\sin^2t}{a\cos t}\cdot a\cos tdt$ -> Find indefinite integral: $\frac{a^2}2(t-\frac12\sin2t)+C$ -> Replace with: $\frac{a^2}2\arcsin\frac xa-\frac x2\sqrt{a^2-x^2}+C$

Summary

  • Common forms:
  • The following three forms: $$\begin{aligned}&\sqrt{a^2-x^2} \\&\sqrt{a^2+x^2} \\&\sqrt{x^2-a^2}\end{aligned}$$
  • The following three forms of x can be used to bring in the root sign to eliminate it: $$\begin{aligned}x&=a\sin t(a\cos t)\\\\x&=a\tan t\\\\x&=a\sec t\end{aligned}$$
  • Purpose: Remove theroot sign;

1.2.2 Examples

Example: $\int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{a^2+x^2}}\quad(a>0)$

  • Analysis
  • Because there is a radical in the original formula, when you need to find its indefinite integral, you should first consider how to eliminate the radical;
  • At this time, you can think of using the second type of substitution method to get a and x out of the root sign;
  • Analysis
  • $x=a*tant$ can be set
  • At this time, first bring it into the denominator. It can be seen that the denominator becomes $a\sec t$
  • Then Find $dx$ -> and Find $d(a*tant)$
