MA2002 Tutorial8

The document is a tutorial for a calculus course covering several topics: 1) It provides 7 problems in Part I evaluating indefinite and definite integrals, finding areas under curves, and taking derivatives. 2) Part II consists of more challenging problems promoting independent thinking, including finding the interval over which an integral is maximized, evaluating definite integrals using identities, and analyzing properties of the natural logarithm function. 3) The solutions to Part I are provided, while students must attempt Part II problems on their own with the full solutions given later.

T UTORIAL PART II

This part consists of relatively difficult questions to promote independent learning and in-
culcate critical thinking abilities. The solutions will not be recorded. You may attempt them
after you have gained a good understanding of the questions in Part I. The complete solution
of this part is provided.

1. Find the interval [a, b] for which the value of the integral
Z b
(2 + x − x 2 ) d x
a

is a maximum.

2. Let a > 0, and let f be continuous on [0, a].

(i) Show that Z a f (x)


Z a f (a − x)
dx = d x.
0 f (x) + f (a − x) 0 f (x) + f (a − x)

(ii) Using part (i), show that

Z 1
Hence, evaluate the definite integral 4 4
d x.
0 x + (1 − x)

3. (i) Let M > 0. Use the identity ln x r = r ln x (x > 0, r ∈ Q) to find a number c > 0 such
that ln c > M .

(ii) Let M > 0. Use part (i) and the Intermediate Value Theorem to show that there exists
x 0 > 0 such that ln x 0 = M .

(iii) Let M < 0. Use part (ii) to show that there exists x 0 > 0 such that ln x 0 = M .

(iv) Use the above to conclude that the range of ln x is R,

lim ln x = ∞ and lim ln x = −∞.
