Anyone got clue on how to start ?? ty...question is double integral with polar coordinates....question attached on second post...ty

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

For first integral, use the substitution u = 1+r^2 du = 2r dr

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok done the first integral adi.....how about the numerator?

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

also i think the hint is wrong, the derivative of tan x is sec^2 x

OpenStudy (turingtest):

how weird ...

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

so use the substistution hint to make cos(2x) cos^2, then simplify the integral so you are left with sec^2 integral of sec^2 = tan x

OpenStudy (ash2326):

We have \[\int_{0}^{\pi/3} \int_{0}^{\sqrt{\cos2\theta}} \frac{r}{(1+r^2)^2} dr d\theta\] Let's evaluate the integral first Let's take r^2= t 2rdr= dt rdr= dt/2 when r= \(\sqrt {\cos2\theta}\) t= \(\cos 2\theta\) r=0 t=0 so we get now \[\int_{0}^{\pi/3} \int_{0}^{\cos2\theta} \frac{1}{2(1+t)^2} dt d\theta\] we get now \[\int_{0}^{\pi/3} [\frac{-1}{2(1+t)}]_{0}^{\cos\theta} d\theta\] we get \[\int_{0}^{\pi/3} -(\frac{1}{2(1+cos \theta)}-\frac{1}{2}) d\theta\] now \(1+cos \theta=2 cos^2 \theta/2\) so we get \[\int_{0}^{\pi/3} -(\frac{1}{2\times \cos^2 \theta/2}-\frac{1}{2}) d\theta\] we get \[\int_{0}^{\pi/3} -(\frac{1}{4} \sec^2 \theta/2 -\frac{1}{2}) d\theta\] can you do now?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@angalc557 Did you understand ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am reading each line you write and try to understand how you get them....wow ....the r for the numerator how it became 1/2 ? the so we get now part ty..converting to t from r that i understand...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh is it from the rdr=dt/2 haha kk right?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Yeah , I'm here. If you don't understand anything tell me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The integral limits of cos2 theta then the second part it became cos theta because of?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Sorry I made mistake , It should be cos 2theta only. Let me rewrite

OpenStudy (ash2326):

\[\int_{0}^{\pi /3}- (\frac{1}{2(1+\cos 2\theta)} -\frac{1}{2}) d\theta\] \[1+\cos 2\theta= 2 \cos^2 \theta\] so \[\int_{0}^{\pi /3}- (\frac{1}{2(2 \cos^2 \theta)} -\frac{1}{2}) d\theta\] we get \[\int_{0}^{\pi /3}- (\frac{\sec^2 \theta}{4} -\frac{1}{2}) d\theta\] Can you do it now?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@angalc557 did you understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i see....kk still going through.....so far so good...haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ash2326 is the final answer pi/6-sqrt3/4 ty...??

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@angalc557 let me check,

OpenStudy (ash2326):

yeah correct great work @angalc557

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha ty quite challenging without help...:)
