Integral with complete the square and trig subsitution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

give me a minute to post the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1st of all... I am told to use #30 on the reference page i attached

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the integral to evaluate is \[\int\limits y \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} dy\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the final answer has \[\sin^{-1} \] in it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cannot get the final right! I have submitted so many answers.. they are all coming up wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

those are the clues the professor gave me

OpenStudy (misty1212):

Hi!!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

factor out the \(-4\)first

OpenStudy (misty1212):

\[-4(y^2-y)+10\] the complete the square

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you should get \(11-4 (x-1/2)^2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 11 - (2y-1)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[11- (2y-1)^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hi Freckles!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

glad to see you

OpenStudy (misty1212):

gotta run to class @freckles got this i am sure

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[y \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} \\ y \sqrt{10-(4y^2-4y)} \\ y \sqrt{10-(4y^2-4y+1)+1} \\ y \sqrt{11-(2y-1)^2} \\ \] \[y \sqrt{11 (1-\frac{(2y-1)^2}{11}) }\\ \sqrt{11} y \sqrt{1-\frac{(2y-1)^2}{11}} \\ \sqrt{11} y \sqrt{1-(\frac{2y-1}{\sqrt{11}})^2}\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

so recall sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1 cos^2(x)=1-sin^2(x) so use the sub sin(x)=(2y-1)/sqrt(11)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have \[\int\limits 1/2 (u+1) \sqrt{a^2-b^2}1/2 du\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(\frac{ 1 }{ 4}) \int\limits u \sqrt{a^2-b^2} du + \frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\int\limits \sqrt{a^2-b^2} du\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

what is a and b and u?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u= 2y-1 a= sqrt 11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[w= \sqrt{a^2-b^2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-1/8 \int\limits \sqrt w dw + (u/8) \sqrt (a^2-b^2) + (a^2/8) \sin^{-1} (u/a)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is where i get lost

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think \[\sqrt{a^2- b^2}\] = \[\sqrt{(11-(2y-1)^2)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i got lost and confused myself

OpenStudy (freckles):

ok one sec I guess you are trying to use some kinda formula...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is a pic of what i did...idk where i went wrong. but you can see what i did. that equation thing is hard for me to get in quick

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[\int\limits \sqrt{11} y \sqrt{1-(\frac{2y-1}{\sqrt{11}})^2} dy \\ \text{ Let } \sin(t)=\frac{2y-1}{\sqrt{11} } \\ \cos(t) dt=\frac{2}{ \sqrt{11}} dy \\ \int\limits \sqrt{11} (\frac{\sqrt{11} \sin(t)+1}{2}) \sqrt{1-\sin^2(t)} \frac{\sqrt{11}}{2} \cos(t) dt \\ \frac{11}{4}\int\limits (\sqrt{11} \sin(t)+1) \sqrt{1-\sin^2(t)} \cos(t) dt \\ \frac{11}{4}\int\limits_{}^{} \sqrt{11} \sin(t) \sqrt{1-\sin^2(t) } \cos(t) dt+\frac{11}{4} \int\limits_{}^{} 1 \sqrt{1-\sin^2(t)} \cos(t) dt \] \[\frac{11 \sqrt{11}}{4} \int\limits_{}^{}\sin(t) \sqrt{\cos^2(t)} \cos(t) dt +\frac{11}{4}\int\limits_{}^{} \sqrt{\cos^2(t)} \cos(t) dt \\ \frac{11 \sqrt{11}}{4} \int\limits_{}^{}\sin(t) \cos^2(t) dt+\frac{11}{4} \int\limits \cos^2(t) dt \\ \text{ Let } u=\cos(t) \\ du=-\sin(t) dt \\ \frac{11 \sqrt{11}}{4} \int\limits_{}^{} u^2 (-du)+\frac{11}{4} \int\limits_{}^{} \frac{1}{2}(1+\cos(2t)) dt \] \[\frac{11 \sqrt{11}}{4} \frac{-u^3}{3}+\frac{11}{8}(t +\frac{1}{2}\sin(2t))+C \\ \frac{-11 \sqrt{11}}{12} u^3+\frac{11}{8} t+\frac{11}{16} \sin(2t)+C \\ \frac{-11 \sqrt{11}}{12} \cos^3(t)+\frac{11}{8}t+\frac{11}{16} 2 \sin(t)\cos(t)+C \\ \] Now to get it back in terms of y we refer to our substitution and its corresponding reference right triangle

OpenStudy (freckles):

now I suppose you are using a formula ... so let me look at your work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea..i do substitutions a lot... thats the way the professor makes us

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all i know is my final answer came up as wrong when i plugged it in. and i do not know where im going wrong with the question. do not forget... he told us to use #30 of the reference page i posted above

OpenStudy (freckles):

formulas are boring :( and you have to memorize more stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i agree... i feel very lost in all the substitutions but idk how to do anything else because it hasn't been taught to me. I feel like this question is too long and too hard lol

OpenStudy (freckles):

Ok i have found a formula in my book: \[\int\limits u \sqrt{2au-u^2} du =\frac{2u^2-au-3a^2}{6} \sqrt{2au-u^2}+\frac{a^3}{2} \cos^{-1}(\frac{a-u}{a})+C\] i see this formula

OpenStudy (freckles):

is that the one you are trying to use?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

professor said to use # 30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on the paper i posted... right after i split up the integral u +1 and right before the w substitution started... the formula is used on the integral that doesnt have the u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the second integration

OpenStudy (freckles):

ok we are going to do this... \[I= \int\limits_{}^{}y \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} dy \\ \text{ Let } u=10+4y-4y^2 \text{ So } du=(4-8y ) dy \\ I=\frac{1}{-8} \int\limits -8y \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} dy \\ I=-\frac{1}{8} \int\limits (-8y+4-4) \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} dy \\ I=\frac{-1}{8} \int\limits [(4-8y) \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2}-4 \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} ]dy ) \\ I=\frac{-1}{8} \int\limits_{}^{} (4-8y) \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} dy -\frac{1}{8} \int\limits -4 \sqrt{10+4y-4y^2} dy\] \[\text{ Let } u=10+4y-4y^2 \\ du=(4-8y) dy \\ I=\frac{-1}{8} \int\limits u^\frac{1}{2} du+\frac{1}{2} \int\limits \sqrt{11-(2y-1)^2}\] \[I=\frac{-1}{8} \frac{u^\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}}+\frac{1}{2} \int\limits \sqrt{11-(2y-1)^2} dy \\ \text{ Let } b=2y-1 \\ db=2 dy \\ \frac{1}{2} db=dy \\ I=\frac{-1}{8} \frac{2}{3} u^\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{2} \int\limits \sqrt{11-b^2} \frac{1}{2} db \\ I=\frac{-1}{12} u^\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{4} \int\limits \sqrt{11-b^2}\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

not that one integral should be in the exact form you need

OpenStudy (freckles):

where a^2=11 so a =sqrt(11)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok.. im trying to review real quick

OpenStudy (freckles):

but I think you got to this part right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea... my final answer came out wrong tho

OpenStudy (freckles):

oops one sec

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[I=\frac{-1}{12}(10+4y-4y^2)^\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{4} \int\limits\limits \sqrt{11-b^2} \\ I=\frac{-1}{12}(10+4y-4y^2)^\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{4} [\frac{ b}{2} \sqrt{11-b^2}+\frac{11}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{b}{\sqrt{11}})]+C \\ I=\frac{-1}{12}(10+4y-4y^2)^\frac{3}{2}+\frac{b}{8} \sqrt{11-b^2}+\frac{11}{8} \sin^{-1}(\frac{b}{\sqrt{11}})+C \\ I=\frac{-1}{12}(10+4y-4y^2)^\frac{3}{2}+\frac{2y-1}{8} \sqrt{11-(2y-1)^2}+\frac{11}{8} \sin^{-1}(\frac{2y-1}{\sqrt{11}})+C \]

OpenStudy (freckles):

1/2+2/2=3/2 I see one mistake so far

OpenStudy (freckles):

you didn't integrate sqrt(w) correctly

OpenStudy (freckles):

well you half like did

OpenStudy (freckles):

just the exponent is wrong there

OpenStudy (freckles):

looking at your other stuff now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooohhh!

OpenStudy (freckles):

and the only other complaint I would make is that inside the arcsin I would put (2y-1)/sqrt(11) just so my teach knows I know that just the 1 isn't be divided by sqrt(11)

OpenStudy (freckles):

that is the only thing I see wrong with the final answer though :)

OpenStudy (freckles):

Sorry I had to do it myself first to see if I got what you got

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dont be sorry...i WANT to see how you did it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thank you kindly... once again! I am still confused lol but I feel that If i review the way you did a few times... i will get it!

OpenStudy (freckles):

well how did you get the final solution being confused? i mean you basically got it just a little tiny error is all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it took me 8 hrs tho lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i got on line with a chat tutor that my school provides... and watch 3 videos of similar questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its been a "nightmare"

OpenStudy (freckles):

well I be around for maybe another hour if you decide you need more help or if I need to clarify anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok! I am actually writing down what you did... I like your way much better. I will then study this over and over until I feel I have a grasp on it!

OpenStudy (freckles):

the first way or the second way? lol the first way is without formulas second way is your teacher preferred way from what I understood (Formula)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the second way lol...i have to use what the professor tole me for the form or i would try your form choice
