Chapter 8 Techniques of Integration

Preview For Chapter 7

Techniques of Integration

In Calculus 1, integration was limited to a single substitution and reversing a derivative formula. In Chapter 8 we integrate far more complex integrands involving multiple substitutions.

A student completing this chapter successfully will be able to:

	Integrate algebraically with four techniques: Integration by parts, trigonometric integrals, trigonometric substitution and partial fractions decomposition.
	Integrate using integral tables
	Integrate using a computer algebra system.
	Integrate numerically using Simpson's rule.
	Use limits to determine whether improper integrals converge or diverge.
