Q 3125678561

Find ` ∫ ( dx)/( (x+1) (x+2) )`



Class 12 Chapter 7 Example 11
Solution:

The integrand is a proper rational function. Therefore, by using the form of
partial fraction [Table 7.2 (i)], we write

`1/( ( x+1) (x+2) ) = A/(x+1) +B/(x+2)` .......... (1)

where, real numbers A and B are to be determined suitably. This gives

`1 = A (x + 2) + B (x + 1)`.

Equating the coefficients of x and the constant term, we get

`A + B = 0`

and `2A + B = 1`

Solving these equations, we get A =1 and B = – 1.

Thus, the integrand is given by

`1/((x+1)(x+2)) = 1/(x+1) + (-1)/(x+2)`

Therefore, ` ∫ (dx)/( (x+1)(x+2) ) = ∫ (dx)/(x+1) - ∫ (dx)/(x+2)`

`= log | x+1 | - log | x+2 | +C`

`= log | (x+1)/(x+2) | +C`
Q 3155678564

Find `∫ (x^2 +1)/(x^2 - 5x + 6 ) dx`
Class 12 Chapter 7 Example 12
Solution:

Here the integrand ` (x^2 +1 )/(x^2 -5x + 6 )` is not proper rational function, so we divide
`x^2 + 1` by `x^2 – 5x + 6` and find that

` (x^2 +1)/(x^2 - 5x + 6 ) =1+ (5x-5)/(x^2 - 5x + 6) =1 + (5x -5)/( (x-2) (x-3) )`

Let ` (5x-5)/( (x-2)(x-3) ) = A/(x-2) +B/(x-3)`

So that 5x – 5 = A (x – 3) + B (x – 2)
Equating the coefficients of x and constant terms on both sides, we get A + B = 5
and 3A + 2B = 5. Solving these equations, we get A = – 5 and B = 10

Thus ` (x^2 +1)/(x^2 - 5x + 6 ) = 1- 5/(x-2) +10/(x-3)`

Therefore, ` ∫ (x^2+1)/(x^2 - 5x + 6 ) dx = ∫ dx -5 ∫ 1/(x-2) dx +10 ∫ (dx)/(x-3)`


` = x-5 log |x-2 | + 10 log | x-3 | +C`
Q 3175678566

Find ` ∫ (3x-2)/( (x+1)^2 (x+3) ) dx`


Class 12 Chapter 7 Example 13
Solution:

The integrand is of the type as given in Table 7.2 (4). We write

` (3x-2)/( (x+1)^2 (x+3) ) =A/(x+1) + B/((x+1)^2) +C/(x+3)`

So that `3x – 2 = A (x + 1) (x + 3) + B (x + 3) + C (x + 1)^2`

`= A (x^2 + 4x + 3) + B (x + 3) + C (x^2 + 2x + 1 )`

Comparing coefficient of x2, x and constant term on both sides, we get

A + C = 0, 4A + B + 2C = 3 and 3A + 3B + C = – 2. Solving these equations, we get

`A = 11/4 , B = (-5)/2` and `C = (-11)/4` . Thus the integrand is given by

` (3x-2)/( (x+1)^2 (x+3) ) = 11/(4 (x+1) ) - 5/(2 (x+1)^2 ) - 11/(4 (x+3) )`

Therefore, ` ∫ (3x -2)/( (x+1)^2 (x+3) ) = 11/4 ∫ (dx)/(x+1) - 5/2 ∫ (dx)/((x+1)^2 ) = 11/4 ∫ (dx)/(x+3)`

`= 11/4 log | x+1 | + 5/(2 (x+1) ) -11/4 log | x+3 | +C`

`= 11/4 log | (x+1)/(x+3) | + 5/(2 (x+1) ) +C`
Q 3115678569

Find ` ∫ (x^2 )/( (x^2 +1 ) (x^2 +4) ) dx`


Class 12 Chapter 7 Example 14
Solution:

Consider ` (x^2 )/( (x^2+1) ( x^2 +4) )` and put `x^2 = y` .

Then ` x^2/( (x^2+1) (x^2+4) ) = y/( (y+1)( y+4) )`

Write ` y/( (y+1)(y+4) ) = A/(y+1) +B/(y+4)`

So that y = A (y + 4) + B (y + 1)
Comparing coefficients of y and constant terms on both sides, we get A + B = 1
and 4A + B = 0, which give

`A = -1/3` and `B = 4/3`

Thus, ` (x^2)/( (x^2+1) ( x^2+4) ) = -1/(3 (x^2+1) ) + 4/(3 (x^2 +4) )`

Therefore, ` ∫ (x^2 dx)/( (x^2 +1) (x^2 +4) ) = -1/3 ∫ (dx)/(x^2+1) + 4/3 ∫ (dx)/(x^2 +4)`

` = -1/3 tan^(-1) x +4/3 xx 1/2 tan^(-1) x/2 +C`

` = -1/3 tan^(-1) x + 2/3tan^(-1) x/2 +C`

In the above example, the substitution was made only for the partial fraction part
and not for the integration part. Now, we consider an example, where the integration
involves a combination of the substitution method and the partial fraction method.
Q 3155778664

Find ` ∫ ( ( 3 sin φ -2 ) cos φ )/( 5- cos^2 φ - 4 sin φ) d φ`
Class 12 Chapter 7 Example 15
Solution:

Let y = sinφ
Then dy = cosφ dφ

Therefore, ` ∫ ( ( 3 sin φ -2 ) cos φ )/(5 - cos^2 φ -4 sin φ) d φ = int ( ( 3y -2) dy)/( 5- (1-y^2 ) -4y )`

`= ∫ (3y -2)/(y^2 -4y +4) dy`

` = ∫ (3y -2)/( (y-2)^2 ) =I` (say )


Now, we write ` (3y -2)/( (y-2)^2 ) = A/(y-2) +B/( (y-2)^2 )` [by Table 7.2 (2)]

Therefore, 3y – 2 = A (y – 2) + B
Comparing the coefficients of y and constant term, we get A = 3 and B – 2A = – 2,
which gives A = 3 and B = 4.
Therefore, the required integral is given by

`I = ∫ [ 3/(y-2) + 4/( (y-2)^2) ] dy = 3 ∫ (dy)/( y-2) +4 ∫ (dy)/( (y-2)^2 ) `

`= 3 log | y-2 | +4 ( -1/(y-2) ) +C`

`= 3 log | sin φ -2 | + 4/(2- sin φ) +C`

` =3 log (2- sin φ ) + 4/(2- sin φ) +C` (since, 2 – sinφ is always positive)
Q 3185778667

Find ` ∫ (x^2 +x + 1 dx)/( (x+2) (x^2 +1 ) )`
Class 12 Chapter 7 Example 16
Solution:

The integrand is a proper rational function. Decompose the rational function
into partial fraction [Table 2.2(5)]. Write

` (x^2 + x+1 )/( (x^2 +1) (x+2) ) =A/(x+2) + (Bx+C)/( (x^2 +1 ) )`

Therefore, `x^2 + x + 1 = A (x^2 + 1) + (Bx + C) (x + 2)`

Equating the coefficients of `x^2, x` and of constant term of both sides, we get
A + B =1, 2B + C = 1 and A + 2C = 1. Solving these equations, we get

`A = 3/5 , B =2/5` and `C = 1/5`

Thus, the integrand is given by

` (x^2+ x +1)/( (x^2 +1) (x+2) ) = 3/(5 (x+2) ) + (2/5 x + 1/5 )/(x^2 +1) = 3/(5 (x+2) ) +1/5 ( (2x+1)/(x^2 +1) )`

Therefore, ` ∫ ( x^2 + x +1 )/( (x^2 +1 ) (x+2) ) dx =3/5 ∫ (dx)/(x+2) +1/5 ∫ (2x)/(x^2 +1) dx +1/5 ∫ 1/(x^2 +1) dx`

` =3/5 log | x+2| + 1/5 log | x^2 +1 | + 1/5 tan^(-1) x +C`
