Check my work: Integraltion

OpenStudy (kkutie7):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{1}\frac{\arctan(y)}{1+y^{2}}dy\]

OpenStudy (kkutie7):

So I believe that \[\frac{1}{(1)^{2}+y^{2}}=arctan(y)?\]

OpenStudy (kkutie7):

so what it would be \[\int \frac{arctan(y)}{arctan(y)}dy\rightarrow \int 1dy?\]

OpenStudy (kkutie7):

this isn't right

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

it's the differentiation of arctan(y) that is equal to 1/(1+ y^2)

OpenStudy (kkutie7):

yeah I messed up going to fix it

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

what that implies is substitute arctan(y) = u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shubhamsrg is right. Then you need to substitute: \[du = \frac{ 1 }{ 1 + y ^{2} } dy\]

OpenStudy (kkutie7):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{1}\frac{\arctan(y)}{1+y^{2}}dy\rightarrow \] \[\int\limits_{0}^{1}\frac{u}{1+y^{2}} (1+y^{2})du\]

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

seems about right.
