integration by parts : arcsinxdx please help. thanks in advance!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hint \[\int \color{red}{\arcsin x}\,\color{blue}{dx}\]

OpenStudy (1018):

u=arcsinx dv=dx ?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

dv=1

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and your u is right.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you need to find the derivative of arcsin(x).

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{slate}{ \displaystyle {\rm y=ArcSin}(x) }\) re-write, \(\large\color{slate}{ \displaystyle {\rm x=Sin}(y) }\) and the differentiate both sides, dy/dx.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

then*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[I=\int\limits \left( \sin^{-1} x \right)\left( 1 \right)dx\] \[=\left( \sin^{-1} x \right)x-\int\limits \frac{ 1 }{ \sqrt{1-x^2} }x~dx+c\] \[=x~\sin^{-1} x+\frac{ 1 }{ 2 } \int\limits \left( 1-x^2 \right)^{\frac{ -1 }{ 2 }}\left( -2x \right)dx+c\] ?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

well, we have to get to that, if the user (maybe) doesn't remember what the derivative of arcsin(x) is.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

1018, are you comfortable, finding the derivative of arcsin(x) ?

OpenStudy (1018):

yes yes im there. haha. sorry im trying to solve at the same time. :)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

sure, take your time.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Did you find the derivative of arcsin(x), or you are doing this now?

OpenStudy (1018):

wait, just to clarify, my dv=1 right? so v=dx? or wrong?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

dv=1 v=x (v is the integral of dv)

OpenStudy (1018):

oh right right sorry. thanks!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

it's okay. So how about the derivative of arcsin(X) ?

OpenStudy (1018):

it's the 1 / sqrt(1-x^2) right?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you did it off surjithayer's work, or you know how to get it on your own?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I am asking you this, because if you didn't know how to find it, we should learn how to find it, before proceeding to solving the integral.

OpenStudy (1018):

no i got eariler. :)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

oh, very good. So now we can integrate it.

OpenStudy (1018):

haha, no yeah i got it thanks. i still remember my diff calc lol

OpenStudy (1018):

wait, ill present my equation to you so far tell me whats wrong with it

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

wait, so you don't fully comprehend the derivative of arcsin(x) ?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

or are you going on about solving the integral?

OpenStudy (1018):

the integral

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

oh, sure go ahead and post your work...

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I will be typing something, but don't worry about me. (keep typing)

OpenStudy (1018):

\[(\sin^{-1} (x))(x) - \int\limits (x)(\frac{ 1 }{ \sqrt{1-x^2} }) dx\]

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, that is correct,

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}{\rm ArcSin}(x)~dx=x{\rm ArcSin}(x)-\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}dx}\)

OpenStudy (1018):

wait, is it simpler if I raise the denominator up with the numerator? or not?

OpenStudy (1018):

like x(1-x^2)^-1/2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

what is the derivative of \(\large\color{slate}{1-x^2}\) ?

OpenStudy (1018):

-2x

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, so you see that the derivative of \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle 1-x^2}\) is pretty much sitting on top of the fraction.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you just are lacking to multiply it times -2, but this is really good for u-substitution.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}{\rm ArcSin}(x)~dx=x{\rm ArcSin}(x)-\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}dx}\) \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}{\rm ArcSin}(x)~dx=x{\rm ArcSin}(x)-\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \times \color{blue}{\frac{-2}{-2} }dx}\) \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}{\rm ArcSin}(x)~dx=x{\rm ArcSin}(x)-\color{blue}{\frac{1}{-2} }\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{\color{blue}{-2}x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \times dx}\) \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}{\rm ArcSin}(x)~dx=x{\rm ArcSin}(x)+\color{blue}{\frac{1}{2} }\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{\color{blue}{-2}x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \times dx}\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

this is the basic set up.... see what I did ?

OpenStudy (1018):

yes, yes. so then is this when i use u-sub?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, and what will you "u" be?

OpenStudy (1018):

the denominator?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

not exactly

OpenStudy (1018):

can i use the formula for ln? dx/x?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

again, the derivative of what is -2x ?

OpenStudy (1018):

oh sorry nevermind my other question lol

OpenStudy (1018):

sqrt(1-x^2)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you know that if you have \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{f'(x)}{g(f(x))} \times dx}\) then u=f(x) du=f'(x) dx \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{1}{g(u)} \times du}\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

What do you think about this?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

your g part is the square root, f(x) is 1-x^2 and f'(x) is -2x.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

lost ?

OpenStudy (1018):

little bit. haha.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, so we have \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~}{\rm ArcSin}(x)~dx=x{\rm ArcSin}(x)+\color{blue}{\frac{1}{2} }\int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{\color{blue}{-2}x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \times dx}\) but lets look at the \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle \int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{\color{blue}{-2}x}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \times dx}\) as you substitute "u" for "whatever" the "du" will be substituted instead of "derivative of whatever * dx"

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

so, if you take u = 1-x^2 then, du = (-2x) * dx

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

am I making sense? to what extent?

OpenStudy (1018):

yes, yes thanks. but is my du only 1-x^2 without the square root?

OpenStudy (1018):

i mean u

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Yes, your u=1-x^2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

So do the u-substitution for me please.

OpenStudy (1018):

my du will be -2x dx right? so i just sub du on top?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yup

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

du = -2x dx

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you are correct, go ahead:)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle \int\limits_{~}^{~}\frac{\color{blue}{-2x}}{\sqrt{\color{red}{1-x^2}}}~~\color{blue}{dx}}\) \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle \color{red}{u}= \color{red}{1-x^2} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle \color{blue}{du}=\color{blue}{-2x~dx} }\)

OpenStudy (1018):

can i write it as du / sqrt(u) ?

OpenStudy (1018):

oh there it is. haha. so can i?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you mean u=1-x^2 u+1=x^2 sqrt(u+1)=x du=-2x dx du=-2sqrt(u+1)dx du/sqrt(u+1)=-2 dx but there is no need in doing this.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

if you go from where I am in red and blue (where I posted u and du) you can see what u goes instead of, and what goes instead of du goes instead of.

OpenStudy (1018):

ok so is it du / sqrt(u) ?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

do you mean, \(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~} \frac{du}{\sqrt{u}} }\) ?

OpenStudy (1018):

yes

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

oh, yes yes

OpenStudy (1018):

is that right?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes,.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

what is the anti-derivative ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits (1-x^2)^{\frac{ -1 }{ 2 }}(-2x~dx)=\frac{ \left( 1-x^2 \right)^{\frac{ -1 }{ 2 }+1} }{ \frac{ -1 }{ 2 }+1 }\] \[=\frac{ \left( 1-x^2 \right)^{\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }} }{ \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } }=2\sqrt{1-x^2}\]

OpenStudy (1018):

is it easier if i put the u up with the numerator? making it raised to -(1/2) ?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{slate}{\displaystyle\int\limits_{~}^{~} u^{-1/2}~du }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

rhen apply the power rule.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

then*

OpenStudy (1018):

u^(1/2) / 1/2 ?

OpenStudy (1018):

wait i have one half earlier outside right can i cancel the denominator?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, and dividing by 1/2 is same as multiplying by ?

OpenStudy (1018):

i mean the 2s

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

2s ?

OpenStudy (1018):

oh wait sorry. haha. ill clarify. its 2(u)^(1/2)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

+C

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

oh, sub the x back

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

u=1-x62 that is what we had

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

u = 1-x^2

OpenStudy (1018):

yes yes. :)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

So, the antiderivative is 2sqrt(1-x^2) + C

OpenStudy (1018):

now i still have the 1/2 outside the integral right?

OpenStudy (1018):

so i can cancel 2?
