let u = [64-(x-20)^2] first integrate u^1/2 then multiply that by the integral of [64-(x-20)^2]
There are probably a few ways to approach this. Personally, I would do a Trig sub. \[\Large\rm \int\limits \sqrt{64-(x-20)^2}~dx\]Factoring a 64 out of each term gives us:\[\Large\rm 8\int\limits\sqrt{1-\left(\frac{x-20}{8}\right)^2}~dx\]Making the substitution:\[\Large\rm \frac{x-20}{8}=\sin \theta\]
\[\Large\rm dx=8\cos \theta~d \theta\] Giving us an integral of something like...\[\Large\rm 8\int\limits \sqrt{1-\sin^2\theta}(8\cos \theta~d \theta)\]
How do I find theta?
Whut? +_+ Have you learned about Trigonometric Substitutions?
or have you solved ANY integral before ?
No i haven't learnt about trig substitutions. I have solved integral before but without square roots...
