ANTIDIFFERENTIATION OF A COMPOSITE FUNCTIONLet g be a function whose range is an interval I and let f be a function that is continuous on I. If g is differentiable on its domain and F is an antiderivative of f on I, then
If u = g(x), then du = g’(x)dx and

PATTERN RECOGNITION
In this section you will study techniques for integrating composite functions.
This is split into two parts, pattern recognition and change of variables.
u-substitution is similar to the techniques used for the chain rule in differentiation.
PATTERN RECOGNITION FOR FINDING THE ANTIDERIVATIVEFindLet g(x)=5x and we have g’(x)=5dx So we have f(g(x))=f(5x)=cos5xFrom this, you can recognize that the integrand follows the f(g(x))g’(x) pattern. Using the trig integration rule, we get
You can check this by differentiating the answer to obtain the original integrand.

Look at the more complex part of the function- the stuff ‘inside’.
Does the stuff outside look like the derivative of the stuff inside?

PATTERN RECOGNITION
The integrands in Example 1 fit the f(g(x))g'(x) pattern exactly—you only had to recognize the pattern.
You can extend this technique considerably with the Constant Multiple Rule
Many integrands contain the essential part (the variable part) of g'(x) but are missing a constant multiple.
In such cases, you can multiply and divide by the necessary constant multiple, as shown in Example 3.

Solution:
First, let u be the inner function, u = 2x – 1.
Then calculate the differential du to be du = 2dx.
Now, using

GUIDELINES FOR MAKING A CHANGE OF VARIABLES1. Choose a substitution u=g(x). Usually it is
best to choose the INNER part of a composite function, such as a quantity raised to a power.
2. Compute du=g’(x)dx
3. Rewrite the integral in terms of the variable u
4. Find the resulting integral in terms of u
5. Replace u by g(x) to obtain an antiderivative in terms of x.
6. Check your answer by differentiating.

CHANGE OF VARIABLES FOR DEFINITE INTEGRALS
If the function u=g(x) has a continuous derivative on the closed interval [a,b] and f is continuous on the range of g, then
Basically, this gives us permission to find the area under the curve with these types of integration problems.

EXAMPLE 8 – CHANGE OF VARIABLESEvaluate
Solution:
To evaluate this integral, let u = x2 + 1.
Then, you obtain
Before substituting, determine the new upper and lower limits of integration.
EXAMPLE 8 – SOLUTION
Try rewriting the antiderivative
in terms of the variable x and evaluate the definite integral at the original limits of integration, as shown.
Notice that you obtain the same result.

INTEGRATION OF EVEN AND ODD FUNCTIONSEven with a change of variables, integration can be difficult.
Occasionally, you can simplify the evaluation of a definite integral over an interval that is symmetric about the y-axis or about the origin by recognizing the integrand to be an even or odd function (see Figure 4.40).

EXAMPLE 10 – INTEGRATION OF AN ODD FUNCTION
Evaluate
Solution:
Letting f(x) = sin3x cos x + sin x cos x produces
f(–x) = sin3(–x) cos (–x) + sin (–x) cos (–x)
= –sin3x cos x – sin x cos x = –f(x).
EXAMPLE 10 – SOLUTION
So, f is an odd function, and because f is symmetric about the origin over [–π/2, π/2], you can apply Theorem 4.16 to conclude that

These are the minimum to help you PASS this next quiz/test. I suggest you complete all problems in the sections relating to what was covered in the notes.
Students taking the AP Exam in the spring should also look at 107, 108, 111-112, and the word problems (see me for assistance when you get to them).
