1) Introduction (2 mins)
Integration is an important concept in mathematics and together with its inverse; differentiation, is one
of the two main operations in calculus. Integration can be considered as the reverse process of
differentiation, that is, integration is the process of finding a function given its derivative. Applications of
anti-differentiation arise in problems in which we know the rate of change of a function and want to find
the function itself. Since velocity is rate of change of displacement, we must anti-differentiate to find the
displacement. Definite integration, on the other hand, can be used to find areas, volumes, length of
arcs, centroids and many other useful quantities. In this lesson, you will learn how to evaluate simple
integrals by reversing the process of differentiation, and by applying the basic rules of integration.

3. Definite integral. A definite integral is an integral a
with lower and upper limits a & b respectively. If is restricted to lie on the real line, the definite integral
is known as a Riemann integral.
Fundamentals of Integration
Essentially, integration is viewed as an inverse operation to differentiation (fact from FTC), that is,
F x f x , then
d
integration is the process of finding a function given its derivative, so that if
dx
The symbol denotes the operation of anti-differentiation (i.e., the process of obtaining the
antiderivative or indefinite integral of functions), and we write
In this notation,
is the integrand;
If the anti-derivative of the function on interval exists, we say that the function is integrable over the
interval . Note that indefinite integration means anti-differentiation.
Definition: If f is a continuous function defined for a x b, then the definite integral of f from a to b, is
n
f x dx n lim f ( xi )x
b
a
i 1
provided that this limit exists. If it does exist, we say that is integrable on the closed interval [a, b].
b
In the notation for the definite integral
a
f ( x)dx , f(x) is called the integrand, whereas a and b are the lower
and upper limits respectively. The symbol looks like an elongated S and is called an integral sign which is
appropriate because the definite integral is the limit of a sequence of sums. Its notation is read as “the definite
integral of from ”. It is called definite integral because its value is independent of the constant of
integration.
From the definition, it must be noted that we cannot obtain the definite integrals of those functions having a
2 1
point of discontinuity anywhere in the closed interval [a, b]. For example, 0 x2
dx does not have a definite
1
integral because the function is discontinuous at . Bear always in mind that we just can‟t integrate
x2
functions that are not continuous in its interval of integration.
Now if we have indefinite integrals (or generally, anti-derivatives), we also have definite integrals. Let's take a
look at how their characteristics differ.
This result connects the purely algebraic indefinite integral and the purely analytic (or geometric) definite
integral. It is important to note that an indefinite integral is a function (or family of functions), whereas the
definite integral is a number.
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC) is an extremely powerful theorem that establishes the
relationship between differentiation and integration, and gives us a way to evaluate definite integrals without
using Riemann sums or calculating areas. The theorem is comprised of two parts: FTC I connects differential
calculus with integration, that is, if is continuous over an interval [a, b], and the function is defined by
F x f t dt then F x f x or F ' ' x f x over [a, b]. More explicitly, Part I says that if a function
x d
a dx
is integrated (to form a definite integral with a variable upper limit of integration), and the result is then
differentiated, the original function is recovered; that is, differentiation “undoes” integration. Part II allows
definite integrals to be computed in terms of indefinite integrals because if is any anti-derivative/indefinite
integral of a continuous function on the closed interval [a, b], such that , then
f ( x)dx F x F b F a . It says that a definite integral can be computed by first determining an

indefinite integral and then subtract its value at the lower limit from its value at the upper limit.

(Give the derivatives of the exponential functions and the logarithmic functions)
Exponential functions are used to model natural phenomena such as population growth, decomposition
or decay, economic development, as well as compound interest, depreciation, and resource
consumption, to name only a few applications. On the other hand, logarithmic functions- which are
inverses of exponential functions- occur prominently in fields as diverse as acoustics and seismology.
In this lesson, we explore integration involving exponential and logarithmic functions.
The logarithm is a basic function from which many other functions are built-, whereas the exponential function
is perhaps the most efficient function in terms of the operations of calculus. Because these two functions,
which are inverses of each other, have a lot of applications and occur frequently in physical sciences, it can be
very helpful to be able to integrate them. In our study on integration resulting to logarithmic functions, we will
focus on logarithms with base 𝑒which are called natural logarithms, and the irrational Euler Number 𝑒
(𝑒 =2.71828…) is the natural base, that is, 𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑒 𝑥 = 𝑙𝑛 𝑥.
Now let us recall the properties of exponents and logarithms, and some basic definitions and rules in
manipulating exponentials and logarithmic functions.
Properties of Exponents
1. 𝑎𝑚 𝑎𝑛 = 𝑎𝑚+𝑛 𝑎𝑚 1
5. = 𝑎 𝑚−𝑛 if m > n 7. 𝑎−𝑚 = 𝑎𝑚
𝑎𝑛
2. (𝑎𝑚 )𝑛 = 𝑎𝑚𝑛 𝑎𝑚 1 1
𝑎𝑛
= 𝑎𝑛−𝑚 if m < n 8. 𝑎𝑛 = 𝑛√𝑎
3. (𝑎𝑏 )𝑚 = 𝑎𝑚 𝑏 𝑚 𝑎𝑚 𝑚
𝑛 𝑚
𝑎𝑛
= 1 if m = n 9. 𝑎 𝑛 = √𝑎𝑚 = ( 𝑛√𝑎)
𝑎 𝑚 𝑎𝑚 6. 𝑎0 = 1
4. (𝑏 ) = 𝑏𝑚
𝑦 = 𝑒𝑥 if and only if 𝑙𝑛 𝑦 = 𝑥.
This implies that natural logarithmic and exponential functions are inverses of each other.
Therefore 𝑙𝑛 𝑦 = 𝑥
Nearly all of the integrals involving exponential functions come down to two basic formulas. Here, we
consider only one integration formula leading to natural logarithms.
Before getting started with practice exercises, here is a table of the differentiation and integration rules
for exponential and logarithmic functions.

2𝑥𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑢
∫ 2 =∫
3+𝑥 𝑢

Notice that the logarithmic and exponential rules for integration are directly obtained from their differentiation
rules. Also, that the exponential function 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑢 is its own differential and its own integral. On the other hand,
Formula 3 says that the integral of a quotient whose numerator is the differential of the denominator, is equal
to the natural logarithm of the absolute value of the denominator. As a consequence, to formula (3), we need
to apply the rule stated below.
Rule: As the first step toward integrating a rational function, see to it that the numerator is of lower
degree (is the largest exponent of all the terms) than the denominator, otherwise, you have to perform division
first. In other words, you can only integrate directly if the integrand is already a proper fraction.
Let us do some integration, using u-substitution as a tool and performing polynomial long division when the
given integrand requires.

Trigonometry finds importance in various fields such as in astronomy, geography, engineering, navigation,
aviation, surveying, architecture, medical imaging (MRI), and even in the investigation of crime scene. Now,
knowing these real-life applications, every student of mathematics is also expected to know that the study of
calculus is based on algebra and trigonometry. On the other hand, hyperbolic functions find wide applications
to some quantities in science and engineering such as light, velocity, electricity, and radioactivity. Its most
famous physical application is in catenaries, where hyperbolic cosine is used to describe the curve formed by
hanging wires and cables.
This lesson covers the trigonometric functions as well as the hyperbolic functions and some basic materials on
integration. You will learn how to apply not only the trigonometric identities but also some hyperbolic identities
and the relationship between hyperbolic and exponential functions. Normally, the applications of trigonometric
and hyperbolic identities and the rule of u -substitutions transform the original integrand into a standard form
which makes integration a lot easier. Your knowledge on the integration of trigonometric functions and
hyperbolic functions are relevant to our future lessons on applications of integration.

Inverse trigonometric functions, also known as “arcus functions” or anti-trigonometric functions, are widely
used in engineering, navigation, physics and geometry. One of its many uses is to find the angle of a
triangle from any of the trigonometric functions. Generally, the inverse trigonometric functions are
represented by adding arc in prefix for a trigonometric function, or by adding the power of -1, such as:

rules of the inverse trigonometric functions, as well as the integration formulas leading to inverse
trigonometric functions listed below.

trigonometric functions. In dealing with these integrands, always remember to transform the given
integrand to u du form using the simple substitution ( u - substitution) rule. Likewise, take note that du

It can be observed that all the integration formulas leading to inverse trigonometric functions have
binomial expressions in them. Here, an algebraic operation called completing the square can be
performed to reduce a quadratic expression that may be found in the integrand, as a sum or difference
of two squares. The quadratic x bx c can be expressed as a difference (or sum) of two squares by

adding and subtracting the square of one-half the coefficient of x . That is,

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
In the previous lessons, you learned the fundamentals of integration and the application of the Substitution
Rule u Substituti on in evaluating not only the indefinite integrals but the definite integrals as well. In today’s
lesson, you will learn a technique for using the basic rules to obtain the integrals of more complicated
integrands. This technique corresponds to the Product Rule of differentiation and is called the rule for
integration by parts (IBP).
In your study on integration techniques, it is expected that you have already acquired sufficient knowledge not
only on the fundamental rules and formulas but more importantly, on their applications.
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
Integration by parts (IBP) is a technique for integrating products of functions. It is frequently used when the
basic integration rules won’t work or when the function to be evaluated is the product of two simpler functions.
It permits integration of products involving algebraic and transcendental functions such as x cos x , x ln x , x 2 e x ,
and e x sin x to mention a few.
Now, let us consider the product rule for differentiation and derive from it this important integration technique.
The product rule for differentiation states that if u x and vx are differentiable functions of , then
d uv udv vdu.
A little rearrangement gives
udv d uv vdu.
Integrating both sides of the equation
udv d uv vdu.
Gives us
udv uv vdu.
This gives us a technique for integration called INTEGRATION by PARTS (IBP), which allows us to integrate
many products of functions of x. We take one factor in this product to be u while the other factor is taken to be
dv. Note that our aim in using IBP is to obtain a simpler integral than the one we started with, that is, vdu
must be easier to evaluate than udv . The key point here is having correct choices in assigning a function as
u and the differential of another function as dv .
The acronym ILATE (which stands for inverse trigonometric, logarithmic, algebraic, trigonometric, and
exponential expressions) can guide us in giving preferences on what function is to be assigned as u , i.e., we
have to choose u according to what function comes first in the acronym. For example, to evaluate x cos xdx
we prefer to assign the algebraic expression x as u , and the trigonometric expression cos xdx as dv . We then
have du dx and v sin x so that using the IBP formula udv uv vdu ,
x cos xdx x sin x sin xdx
x cos xdx x sin x cos x C .
Now, assigning the other way around will make the integral more complicated and the integration process
more difficult.
Let's look at the steps involved when using integration by parts.
1. Choose u and dv correctly (use the acronym ILATE as guide)
2. Obtain the differential of u , that is, du , and the integral of dv , that is, v .
3. Plug u , v , du , dv into the integration according to the parts formula
udv uv vdu and simplify.
Let's apply these steps to evaluate ln xdx . We know our two functions are ln x and 1. Since the derivative of
ln x is well-known as , it would probably be a good idea to let ln x . Similarly, the integral of 1 is well-
known as , where is a constant. Thus, we will let . It's important to note that we don't include
the constants when finding different integrals during the solving process. This is because the constants that
would show up throughout will all be taken care of at the end of the process when we have our final constant.
dx
Assign = ln x and So = and
x
At this point, we've actually completed steps 1 and 2, and we have our , and . All we have to do now
is plug the results into our formula and simplify.
dx
ln xdx x ln x x x
ln xdx x ln x x C
2
Example1.
Solve 1
x 5 x 3 1dx
Let u x 5 , du 5x 4 dx , dv x 3 1dx
However, as with the previous example this won’t work since we can’t easily compute v. This is not an easy
integral to do. However, notice that if we had an x 2 in the integral along with the root we could very easily do
the integral with a substitution. Also notice that we do have a lot of floating around in the original integral.
So instead of putting all the (outside of the root) in the , let’s split them up as follows.

You should already know that finding the indefinite integral of a function 𝑓(𝑥) means obtaining a
𝑑𝐹
function 𝐹(𝑥) whose derivative is equal to 𝑓(𝑥), so that, for example, we know that ,
𝑑𝑥
cos xdx = sin x + C .precisely because 𝑑𝑥 (𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 + 𝐶) = 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥. Integrals of simple functions, that is, those

that can be quickly recognized as the derivatives of other functions, can easily be obtained in this way.
Trigonometric integrals like sin 3 xdx and cos4 x sin 2 xdx are very important throughout science and
engineering specifically, in the field of Fourier analysis. Fourier transform and trigonometric integrals
pave way to Myo-Resonance Imaging (MRI), a very well-known medical procedure.
In this lesson, you will learn several techniques on how to integrate a variety of powers and products of
trigonometric functions. These integrals are called trigonometric integrals. This lesson will be built
heavily on your knowledge of analytical trigonometry (that is, trigonometric identities), integration using
u-Substitution and integration by parts.

Trigonometric integrals are a family of integrals involving trigonometric functions. These functions are
useful as they describe periodic behaviour such as in sound and light waves, the human heartbeat and
even in satellite systems, to mention a few. Some integrals involving trigonometric functions can be
evaluated by using trigonometric identities. These transformations allow the integrand to be written in
an alternative form which can be integrated readily. Since this topic deals with the evaluation of more
complicated trigonometric integrals, it is expected that you already acquired a fairly good working
knowledge of the basic integration rules/formulas as well as the application of the simple substitution
(u-substitution) rule. In particular, this lesson focuses on integrating powers and products of some
trigonometric functions by transforming them using identities.

1) Introduction (2 mins)
You learned from past lessons that integrals which seem to look very difficult to evaluate can be modified into
very simple forms that you can integrate easily using the simple substitution rule (u-substitution). In this lesson,
we will look at integrals that require the use of a substitution involving trigonometric functions and how they are
evaluated. This type of a substitution technique is applicable to radical quadratic expressions of a binomial,
particularly, a sum or difference of two squares, and is called integration by trigonometric substitution.
The method of trig substitution may be called upon when other more common and easier-to-use methods of
integration have failed. Trig substitution assumes that you are familiar with standard trigonometric identities,
the use of derivatives, integration using u-substitution, and the integration of trigonometric functions.
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
Often, integrals involving a − x , a + x , x − a , and any other radical expressions of similar forms
2 2 2 2 2 2
occur where integration by simple substitution do not work. These integrals can be evaluated by substituting a
trigonometric function of x. The main idea is to determine a substitution that would allow us to reduce the
binomial under the root into a single term (monomial) thus making it possible to eliminate the root easily. This
is possible if we make use of the following trigonometric identities in place of the binomial terms:
1 − sin 2 = cos2 a2 − x2
b) tan + 1 = sec for a + x c) sec − 1 = tan for x − a
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
a) for
a 2 − x 2 = a 2 − a 2 sin 2
( )
= a 2 1 − sin 2 , thus, we get a monomial
= a 2 cos2 , which is a perfect square
= (a cos ) ,
2
This means that if the expression a 2 − x 2 is under a root, the root can be eliminated easily.
Notice that in the simple substitution (u-substitution) method, we assign a new variable as a function of the old
one (say, let 𝑢 = 𝑔(𝑥)), but here we assign an old variable as a function of the new one (that is,put x = a sin ).
This kind of substitution is called Reverse Substitution or more commonly known as the trigonometric
Substitution. This reverse substitution is made provided that it defines a one-to-one function, that is, lies in
the interval.

the area of a region in a plane, particularly in terms of areas under curves.
When x is restricted to lie on the x-axis, the definite integral is known as a Riemann sum (an approximation of
the area under a mathematical curve between two x-values).
b
The definite integral of a continuous function f over the interval [a, b], denoted by
a
f ( x)dx is the limit
of a Riemann sum as the number of subdivisions approaches infinity. That is,
n
f ( x)dx n lim f ( xi )x
b

where,

The definite integral as a limit of Riemann’s sums defines the area under the curve of a function. Now, the
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part II not only establishes the relationship between differentiation and
integration but also gives us a way to evaluate definite integrals without using the more tedious Riemann’s
sums on calculating areas.
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part II (also known as the Evaluation Theorem)
If f is continuous over the interval [a, b] and F(x) is any derivative of f(x), then
f ( x)dx F x F b F a .
b
b
a a
The application of this theorem seems too simple that the area of an entire region can be calculated by just
evaluating an anti-derivative at the first and last endpoints of an interval.
The area under a curve is the area between the graph of the continuous function y f x , the x axis , and
b
the vertical lines x a, x b and is given by the definite integral A a
f ( x)dx.
To find the area under a curve, it is always helpful to draw a sketch of the curve for the required x-values,
and then remember to apply the key points given below.

2.) For curves which are entirely below the x-axis;
b
a) substitute to the formula A

f ( x)dx where the negative sign accounts to the height f(xi) of the
rectangle that is below the horizontal axis(the y-coordinate of points below the x-axis is negative); or
3) For curves which are partly above and partly below the x-axis, we should calculate each area
separately, that is, for the parts of the curve above the axis, and the parts of the curve below the axis and
get the sum of the individual areas, breaking down the interval of integration into sub-interval a c b .
Areas below the x-axis will come out negative so that we have to take its absolute value.

4) For curves which are much easier to solve using horizontal strips/elements
If we are given y f x , then we need to express it as x f y and get the sum from bottom to top
In some cases, it is easier to find the area if we use horizontal slices or strips with lengths x f y and
d
widths dy and using the formula A

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
In the previous lesson, we studied how to determine the area under a given curve. This lesson explores
finding the area a) between two curves defined by rectangular equations and b) enclosed between polar
equations, using definite integrals.
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
In finding the area between two curves, draw a sketch of each of the curve correctly and determine
which of the two functions produced a) the upper curve and which one gives the lower curve or b) the
curve which is to the right or to the left of the other. It is also directly from the graphs that you are going
to determine the boundaries or limits of integration.
Figure 1 Figure 2
If f and g are continuous on [a, b] and g x f x for all x in a, b , then the area of the region bounded by
the graphs of f and g and the vertical lines x a and x b is given by

The area between the graphs of functions f x and g x can be found by taking the definite integral of
f x g x where f x is above g x .
In Figure 1, the graphs of f and g are shown and that a representative vertical rectangle can be used.
This implies integration with respect to variable x. The same integrand f x g x can be used as
long as f and g are continuous and f x g x for all x in the interval a, b .
If f and g are continuous on [a, b], then the area of the region bounded by the graphs of f and g and the
horizontal lines y c and y d is given by
A f y g y dy.

A xrighthandpoint xleft handpoint dy.
The area between the graphs of functions f y and g y can be found by taking the definite integral of
f y g y where f y is to the right of g y .
In Figure 2, the graphs of f and g showed that the curve f(y) is to the right side of g(y) and that a representative
horizontal rectangle can be used. This implies integration with respect to variable y. The same integrand
f y g y can be used as long as f and g are continuous for all x in the interval a, b .
Let f(x) and g(x) be continuous functions over an interval [a, b]. Let R denote the region between the graphs
of f(x) and g(x), and be bounded on the left and right by the lines x=a and x=b, respectively. Then, the area
of R is given by
a a c
Where the interval [a, b] will be broken-up into sub-intervals say, depending on which of the
function values is greater over a given part of the interval.
Key Points:
1) Always, a vertical strip will be positive, if we use the y of the upper point minus the y of the lower point.
2) A horizontal strip will be positive, if we use the x of the right-hand point minus the x of the left-hand
point.
To find the area between two curves defined by functions, integrate the difference of the functions.
If the graphs of the functions cross, or if the region is complex, break-up the intervals of integration into
sub-intervals and determine the total area of the region by adding two or more integrals.
Sometimes it can be easier to integrate with respect to y to find the area. The principles are the same
regardless of which variable is used as the variable of integration.

The functions that generate the Riemann integrals are continuous on closed intervals. Thus, the
functions are bounded and the intervals are finite. Integrals of functions with these characteristics
are called proper integrals. When one or both of these requirements are not satisfied, then the
integral is called improper integral. An improper integral is a definite integral that has i) either or
both limits a, b infinite or ii) an integrand f that has an infinite discontinuity at an endpoint or one or
more interior points in the interval. Improper integrals cannot be computed using a normal Riemann
integral.
Let us have the distinctions between the definitions of proper and improper integrals.
Type2. The function f(x) has one or more points of discontinuity in the interval [a, b].
In this kind of integral one or both of the limits of integration are infinity. In these cases, the interval of
integration is said to be over an infinite interval.

In parts i and ii, if the limit is finite, the improper integral converges and the limit is the value of the

In part iii, the integral on the left-hand side of the equation converges if both improper integrals on the
right-hand side converge; otherwise it diverges and has no value.
Let‟s start with examples of the first type of improper integrals that will show us how we are going to deal
with these integrals.

The multiple integral is a type of definite integral extended to functions of more than one real variable,
for example, f(x, y) or f(x, y, z). Integrals of a function of two variables over a region in R2 are called
double integrals, and integrals of a function of three variables over a region of R3 are called triple
integrals.
Just as the definite integral of a positive function of one variable represents the area of the region
between the graph of the function and the x-axis, the double integral of a positive function of two
variables represents the volume of the region between the surface defined by the function (on the
three-dimensional Cartesian plane where ( ) and the plane which contains its domain. The
same volume can be obtained via the triple integral—the integral of a function in three variables- of the
constant function ( ) over the above-mentioned region between the surface and the plane.
An iterated integral is the result of applying integrals to a function of more than one variable (for
example ( ) or ( )) in such a way that each of the integrals considers some of the variables
as given constants. Iterated integrals are computed following the operational order indicated by the
parentheses (in the notation that uses them), starting from the innermost integral and working out.
a) During the inner integration (say, ) the other variable of integration (i.e. y) is held constant;
b) The inner limits of integration (say, 1, 2) must be independent of the inner variable of integration,
(say, );
c) The outer limits of integration a and b must be independent of both variables of integration x and y.
f x, y dA f x, y dx dy f x, y dy dx. These integrals are called iterated integrals.

Notice that, by convention, the triple integral has three integral signs (and a double integral has two
integral signs); this is a notational convention which is convenient when computing a multiple integral
as an iterated integral.

1) Introduction (2 mins)
Volume is one of the applications of integration. We can add up representative volumes in the same
way we add up representative rectangles to obtain the area of a region. When we are measuring
volumes of revolution, we can slice representative disks or washers. This lesson deals with various
methods of determining the volumes of solids generated by rotating a region about a line or an axis.
Specifically, we will deal with the a) circular disk and b) circular ring/washer methods.

1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
When a bounded region in the plane is rotated about a line in the same plane, the object generated is
known as a solid of revolution.
For example, if you rotate a rectangle about a line, a solid right circular cylinder will be formed.
Similarly, you can create a solid spherical ball by rotating a semi-circular disk.
𝒚 𝒚
𝒙
𝒙
𝒚 𝒚
𝒙 𝒙
The line where we rotate the shape about is called the axis of revolution.
The volume of the generated solid can be evaluated by applying various methods, namely: a) Circular
disk method, b) Circular ring/washer method, and the c) Cylindrical shell method.
Suppose that 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥) is a continuous, non-negative function on the interval [𝑎, 𝑏] shown below.
The volume of the solid generated by rotating the region bounded by the curve 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥), the 𝑥-axis and
the lines 𝑥 = 𝑎, 𝑥 = 𝑏, about the 𝑥-axis is given by
𝑏
𝑉 = 𝜋 ∫ [𝑓(𝑥)]2 𝑑𝑥
𝑎
The cross section perpendicular to the axis of revolution has the form of a disk of radius 𝑹 = 𝒚 = 𝒇(𝒙).
Likewise, we can find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region bounded by the curve
𝒙 = 𝒇(𝒚), the 𝒚-axis, and the lines 𝒚 = 𝒄, 𝒚 = 𝒅, about the 𝑦-axis using the derived formula
𝑑
𝑉 = 𝜋 ∫ [𝑓(𝑦)]2 𝑑𝑦
𝑐
The volume of the solid generated by rotating the bounded region about the 𝒙-axis is given by
𝑏
𝑉 = 𝜋 ∫ ([𝑓(𝑥)]2 − [𝑔(𝑥)]2 )𝑑𝑥
𝑎
At a point on the 𝒙-axis, a perpendicular cross section of the solid is washer-shape with the inner radius
𝑟 = 𝑔(𝑥) and the outer radius 𝑅 = 𝑓(𝑥).
On the other hand, the volume of the solid formed by rotating a region between the curves 𝒙 = 𝒇(𝒚)
and 𝒙 = 𝒈(𝒚) where 𝒈(𝒚) ≤ 𝒇(𝒚) and 𝒄 ≤ 𝒚 ≤ 𝒅, around the 𝒚-axis is given by the formula
𝑑
𝑉 = 𝜋 ∫ ([𝑓 (𝑦)]2 − [𝑔(𝑦)]2 )𝑑𝑦.

1. Sketch the bounding region and the solid generated by rotating the region.
2. Get the cross section by cutting the object perpendicular to the axis of revolution
3. Determine the boundaries which represent the limits of integration.
4. Evaluate the integral to obtain the volume.
To understand better, let’s examine some problems involving volumes of solids of revolution.
Example 1. Determine the volume of the solid generated by rotating the region bounded by
𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 5, 𝑥 = 1, 𝑥 = 4 and the 𝑥-axis, about the 𝑥-axis.
Solution:
Step 1: Sketch the bounding region and the solid formed by rotating the region about the 𝑥-axis.
Step 2: To get a cross-section, we cut the solid vertically, since the x-axis is the axis of rotation.
In this case the radius is simply the distance from the 𝑥-axis to the curve and this is nothing more than
the function value at that particular x as shown above. The cross-sectional area is given by 𝐴(𝑥) = 𝜋𝑟 2 .
𝐴(𝑥) = 𝜋[𝑓(𝑥)]2
In this problem, 𝐴(𝑥) = 𝜋(𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 5)2 = 𝜋(𝑥 4 − 8𝑥 3 + 26𝑥 2 − 40𝑥 + 25).
Step 3:. As shown in the figure, the leftmost cross-section is at 𝑥 = 1 and the rightmost cross-section is
at 𝑥 = 4. These are the vertical boundaries, thus, the limits of integration are from 1 to 4.
Example 2. Determine the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region in the first quadrant
bounded by𝑦 = 𝑥 2 , 𝑦 = 0.4 and 𝑦 = 1.4, about the 𝑦-axis.
Solution:
Step 1: Sketch the bounding region and the solid obtained by rotating the region about the 𝑦-axis.
Step 2: To get a cross-section, we cut the solid horizontally, since the y-axis is the axis of rotation.
𝑥 = ඥ𝑦
Observe that the radius is the horizontal distance of the curve from the 𝑦-axis.
𝑦 = 𝑥2 ⇒ ඥ𝑦 = √𝑥 2 𝑤𝑒 𝑔𝑒𝑡 ඥ𝑦 = 𝑥 𝑜𝑟 𝑓 (𝑦) = ඥ𝑦 .
This implies that we need to express the function into the form 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑦). Solving for the
cross-sectional area where the radius, r =x=ඥ𝑦, 𝐴(𝑦) = 𝜋𝑟 2 = 𝜋[𝑓(𝑦)]2 , which in this case is equal
2
to 𝐴(𝑦) = 𝜋(ඥ𝑦) = 𝜋𝑦.
Step 3: The boundaries of the region in question are the two horizontal lines, , 𝑦 = 0.4 and 𝑦 = 1.4..
These are then the limits of integration.
Now the cross-section is obtained by cutting the object perpendicular to the axis of rotation. The cross
section is a ring and is horizontal at some 𝑦. This means that the inner and outer radius for the ring are
𝑥-values. Transforming the functions into the form 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑦), we have
3 3
𝑦 = √𝑥 ⇒ 𝑦 3 = ( √𝑥 )3 ⇒ 𝑦 3 = 𝑥 or 𝑥 = 𝑦3
𝑥
𝑦= ⇒ 4𝑦 = 𝑥 or 𝑥 = 4𝑦
4
Here, the inner radius is the distance from the 𝑥-axis to the inner curve (which is 𝑥 = 𝑦 3 ) while the outer
radius is the distance from the 𝑥-axis to the outer curve, 𝑥 = 4𝑦 . The cross-sectional area is then,
Step 3: To obtain the points of intersection of the curves, let us solve the equations simultaneously.
Equating 𝑥 = 𝑦 3 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑥 = 4𝑦, we have 𝑦 3 = 4𝑦
𝑦 3 − 4𝑦 = 0
𝑦(𝑦 2 − 4) = 0, so that 𝑦 = 0, 𝑦 = 2, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦 = −2.
When 𝑦 = 0, 𝑥 = 0; 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑦 = 2, 𝑥 = 8. Therefore the curves intersect at (0, 0) 𝑎𝑛𝑑(2, 8). Since the
region lies in the first quadrant, we will only consider positive values of 𝑦 as boundaries, which are
𝑦 = 0, 𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑦 = 2.
Example 4. Determine the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by 𝑦 = 𝑥2 − 2𝑥
and 𝑦 = 𝑥 about the line 𝑦 = 4.
Solution
Step 1: Sketch the bounding region and the solid obtained by rotating the region about the line 𝑦 = 4..
Now, we’re going to have to be careful here in determining the inner and outer radius as they
aren’t going to be quite as simple they were in the previous two examples.
Let’s start with the inner radius as this one is a little clearer. First, the inner radius is NOT 𝑥. The
distance from the 𝑥-axis to the inner edge of the ring is 𝑥, but we want the radius and that is the
distance from the axis of rotation to the inner edge of the ring. So, we know that the distance from the
axis of rotation to the 𝑥-axis is 4 and the distance from the 𝑥-axis to the inner ring is 𝑥. The inner radius
must then be the difference between these two. Or,
𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑟 𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑢𝑠 = 4 − 𝑥
The outer radius works the same way. The outer radius is,
Step 3: The first ring will occur at 𝑥 = 0 and the last ring will occur at 𝑥 = 3 and so these are our limits
of integration.

1) Introduction (2 mins)
In the previous lesson we dealt with the determination of volumes of solids of revolution using the
disk and washer methods where the cross-sections of the solid taken are perpendicular to the axis or
line of rotation. In this lesson, we will look into another method that will allow us to add up
representative shells or hollow cylinders that are parallel to the line or axis of rotation. This method of
finding the volumes of the solids of revolution formed is called the Cylindrical Shell method.
.
2) Activity 1: What I Know Chart, part 1 (3 mins)
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
The Cylindrical Shell Method is another method for using definite integral to determine the volume of
a solid of revolution. We learned from the previous lesson that for the disk and washer methods, the
slice is perpendicular to the axis of revolution. The distinction of the shell method compared to the other
two methods is that the slice is parallel to the axis of revolution.
Consider Figure 12.1, where the area shown in (a) rotates around the 𝒚-axis obtaining the solid shown
in (b). In (a), a small slice of the area is drawn, parallel to the axis of rotation. This thin slice forms a
cylindrical shell when the area is rotated, as pictured in part (c) of the figure.
Figure 12.1
To find the volume of the cylindrical shell, we cut the shell and lay it flat to form a rectangular solid with
length 2𝜋𝑟, height h, and depth 𝑑𝑥. Therefore, the volume is 𝑉 = 2𝜋𝑟ℎ 𝑑𝑥 as shown in the figure below.
By splitting the solid into n cylindrical shells, we can estimate the volume of the solid as
𝑛
𝑉 = ∑ 2𝜋𝑟𝑖 ℎ𝑖 𝑑𝑥𝑖
𝑖=1
where 𝑟𝑖 , ℎ𝑖 and 𝑑𝑥𝑖 are the radius, height and thickness of the 𝑖 th shell, respectively.
Let a solid be generated around a vertical axis by rotating a region 𝑹, bounded by 𝒙 = 𝒂 and 𝒙 = 𝒃. Let
𝒓(𝒙) represent the distance from the axis of rotation to 𝒙 (i.e., a sample shell radius) and let 𝒉(𝒙)
represent the height of the solid as 𝒙 (i.e., shell height). The volume of the solid is
𝒃
𝑽 = 𝟐𝝅 ∫ 𝒓(𝒙)𝒉(𝒙)𝒅𝒙

Let’s take a look at the following problems using the method of cylindrical shell.
3
Example 1. Determine the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by 𝑦 = √𝑥,
𝑥 = 8 and the 𝑥-axis, about the 𝑥-axis.
Solution:
Step 1: Sketch the bounded region and the solid generated by the rotation
Here, we are rotating the region about the horizontal axis. This means that the area will be a function of 𝑦
and so our equation will also need to be written in 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑦) form.
3
𝑦 = √𝑥 ⟹ 𝑥 = 𝑦3
In this case the function value is the distance between the edge of the cylinder and the 𝑦-axis.
The distance from the edge out to the line 𝑥 = 8 is 8 − 𝑥, so that the width is 8 − 𝑦 3 . The
cross-sectional area in this particular problem is given by
𝐴(𝑦) = 2𝜋(𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑢𝑠)(𝑤𝑖𝑑𝑡ℎ)

Example 2. Determine the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by
𝑦 = 2√𝑥 − 1 and 𝑦 = 𝑥 − 1 about the line𝑥 = 6.
Solution:
First, notice that the radius is not just an 𝑥 or a 𝑦 as it was in the previous cases. In this case, 𝑥 is the
distance from the 𝑦-axis to the edge of the cylinder and we need the distance from the axis of rotation to
the edge of the cylinder. That means that the radius of this cylinder is 6 − 𝑥.
Second, the height of the cylinder is the difference of the two functions in this case.
Example 3. Find the volume of the solid of revolution formed by rotating the finite region bounded by the
graphs of 𝑦 = √𝑥 − 1 and 𝑦 = (𝑥 − 1)2 about the 𝑦-axis.
Solution:
Step 1: Sketch the bounded region and the solid formed
This time, the height of the cylindrical shell is the difference of the two functions, so the volume of an
individual shell will be given by 𝑉 = 2𝜋𝑟ℎ𝑑𝑥 = 2𝜋𝑥[√𝑥 − 1 − (𝑥 − 1)2 ]𝑑𝑥
Apply u-substitution to integrate the given function. Set u = x − 1 so x = u + 1 and dx = du. With
a change of variable of integration, the limits will also change. So when x=1, u=0, and

The length of an arc along a portion of a curve is another application of the definite integral. Generally,
this length of the curve is called arc length. Many real-world applications involve arc length such as the
determination of the length of hanging bridges, ropes, and wires that form catenary curves, obtaining
the distance one has to travel along a curved road to reach his destination, and finding the lengths of
parabolic and polar curves are only few of its many practical uses. In this lesson we are going to look
at computing the arc lengths of continuous, differentiable, and well-defined functions over given closed
intervals.
Rotating a curve or an arc about an axis will generate a surface of revolution. The concepts we’ll use

Don’t forget algebra and trigonometry. It all comes back with the addition of calculus.
So, go back to the basics-recall, recall, and recall…
A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
We have learned that integrals involving specific rational functions may be evaluated that leads to powers,
logarithms, to an arctangent and by a trigonometric substitution. However, there are certain types of quotients
that all those methods mentioned will not allow us to integrate successfully.
In this lesson, we will deal with the problem of integrating a complicated rational function, that is, the quotient of
two polynomials, by expressing it as sum of integrals of simpler functions called partial fractions that can be
evaluated easily. This process of taking a rational expression and decomposing it into simpler rational
expressions that we can add or subtract to get the original rational expression is called partial fraction
decomposition. This technique is called integration of rational functions by partial fractions.
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
Integration of rational functions by partial fractions is a technique that allows the integral of a
𝑃(𝑥)
seemingly complicated fractional expression to decompose into the sum of integrals of simpler
𝑄(𝑥)
fractions. It is extremely important to keep in mind that this method is applicable only to a proper
algebraic fraction, that is, a fraction whose degree of the numerator is lower than that of the
denominator. Recall that, for a polynomial in𝑥, the degree is the highest power of 𝑥. The rational
𝑥 2 +3
function is a proper algebraic fraction because the numerator 𝑥 2 + 3 is of 2nd degree and the
𝑥 3 −3𝑥−10
𝑃(𝑥)
denominator 𝑥 3 − 3𝑥 − 10 is a polynomial of degree 3. If the rational function 𝑓(𝑥) = is improper
𝑄(𝑥)
(deg(P(x))≥deg(Q(x)), then we carry out the indicated long division until the numerator becomes of
lower degree than the denominator. Thus, we have
𝑃(𝑥) 𝑅(𝑥)
= 𝑔(𝑥) + , where 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑞𝑢𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡 and
𝑄(𝑥) 𝑄(𝑥)
𝑅(𝑥) = 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟
𝑃(𝑥)
where we can do partial fraction decomposition on .
𝑄(𝑥)
Algebra shows that every proper rational fraction can be broken-up into so-called partial
fractions of the forms
𝐴 𝐴(2𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏) 𝐴 𝐴
𝑛 , 2 𝑛 , 2 , .
(𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏) (𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐) 𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 (𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐)𝑛
2
The integrals of these rational functions can then be evaluated by the following rules:
a. Considering the first two forms
i.) Uses the power rule if 𝑛 > 1,
ii.) Applies the rule leading to natural logarithms if 𝑛 = 1,
b. The third form leads to arctangent, while
c. The fourth form applies trigonometric substitution
𝑅(𝑥)
Now, let us consider the proper rational function , the factors of 𝑄(𝑥), and the partial fraction decomposition
𝑄(𝑥)
(PFD):
The key to the process of partial fraction decomposition is being able to predict the form that the decomposition
of a rational function will take. Notice that this form is both predictable and highly dependent on the
factorization of the denominator of the rational function.
Example 1 shows how to use partial fractions to integrate a rational function whose denominator has distinct
linear factors.
𝑥 2 +1
Example1. Evaluate ∫ 2 𝑑𝑥
𝑥 −2𝑥
Solution 1: Here we need to perform division since this is an improper fraction, that is,
degree of 𝑃(𝑥) = degree of 𝑄(𝑥))

2
𝑥 − 2𝑥 𝑥2 + 1
𝑥2 − 2𝑥 where 𝑔(𝑥) = 1 and 𝑅(𝑥) = 2𝑥 + 1
We now have

∫ 𝑑𝑥 = ∫ (1 + 2 ) 𝑑𝑥
𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 𝑥 − 2𝑥
2𝑥 + 1
= ∫ 𝑑𝑥 + ∫ 𝑑𝑥
𝑥 (𝑥 − 2)
After factoring, the denominator of the proper fraction, we express the rational function as the sum of
partial fractions.
2𝑥 + 1 𝐴 𝐵
[ = + ] 𝑥(𝑥 − 2)
𝑥 (𝑥 − 2) 𝑥 𝑥 − 2
We get
2𝑥 + 1 = 𝐴(𝑥 − 2) + 𝐵𝑥 This equation is an identity because it holds true for
all values of 𝑥.
2𝑥 + 1 = 𝐴𝑥 − 2𝐴 + 𝐵𝑥
There are two methods for finding the coefficients A and B and these are the following: a) the method of
equating coefficients and b) the method of substitution.
Solution a)

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
Among the many applications of integral calculus to engineering include work. In fact work is a
fundamental concept in classical physics. If an object is moved a distance d along a straight line
against a force F, the work done is W = F d . Some examples of work done are pushing a car
horizontally from rest; shooting a bullet (the powder does the work); walking up stairs; lifting heavy
objects; and sawing a log. Whenever work is done, energy is transferred from one place to another. In
this lesson, we will focus on finding the work done by a constant force as well as by a variable force.
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
Work is defined as the amount of energy needed to execute a physical task. When force is constant,
the work can be calculated simply using the equation
𝑊 =𝐹∙𝑑
where: 𝑾 is work
𝑭 is constant force and d is the distance at which force is being executed.
Let a constant force be acting continuously upon a body so as to move it through a distance 𝑑.
Work = (magnitude of force)(distance over which it acts).
If, for instance, you use a constant 20-lb. force to push a block 10 ft along the 𝑥-direction, then the work
you do is 𝑾 = (𝟐𝟎 𝒍𝒃. )(𝟏𝟎 𝒇𝒕) = 𝟐𝟎𝟎 𝒇𝒕 − 𝒍𝒃.
We know that most forces are not constant, so we must take the variation of 𝑭 into consideration and
apply the above basic concept of work.
Let the function 𝒇 be continuous on the closed interval [𝒂, 𝒃] and 𝒇(𝒙) units be the variable force
acting on an object at the point 𝒙𝒊 on the 𝒙-axis. If 𝑾 unit is the work done by the force as the object
moves from 𝒂 to 𝒃, then
𝒏 𝒃
𝑾 = 𝐥𝐢𝐦 ∑ 𝒇(𝒙𝒊 )∆𝒙 = ∫ 𝒇(𝒙) 𝒅𝒙
𝒏→∞ 𝒂
𝒊=𝟏
Example. A particle is moving along the 𝒙-axis under the action of a force of 𝒇(𝒙) pounds when the
particle is 𝒙 feet from the origin. If 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒙𝟐 + 𝟒, find the work done as the particle moves from the
point where 𝒙 = 𝟐 to the point where 𝒙 = 𝟒.

There are three types of work problems. The first is stretching or compressing a spring. The next type is
pumping liquids out of a tank, and the last type is hauling up a weight. We will start with the first type of
problem.
One of the simplest notions of work deals with the problems of extension or compression of elastic
materials such as rubber band, a helical spring, or an elastic cord. To determine the work done by
stretching or compressing a spring, we apply 𝑯𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒆’𝒔 𝑳𝒂𝒘, named after the British mathematician
Robert Hooke, who discovered the law of elasticity in 1660. 𝑯𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒆’𝒔 𝑳𝒂𝒘 states that, if a spring is
stretched 𝒙 units beyond its natural length, but within its elastic limit, the displacement or size of the
deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force or load. This implies that the spring is pulled
back by a force equal to 𝒌𝒙 units, where 𝒌 is a constant dependent on the material and size of the
spring.

II. Work done by pumping liquid out of a tank (Work done in emptying a tank)
The pumping of liquid from the top of a tank needs work because the liquid travels against gravity. In
order to calculate this, we can imagine the work needed to lift small liquid disks up and out of the tank.
So we lift a set of masses against gravity and let the liquid spill out until it hits the rim. We are asked to
calculate all of the work done in this activity. Note that 𝒘𝒆𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 = 𝒎𝒂𝒔𝒔 × 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒄𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒕𝒊𝒚 (𝒘 = 𝒎𝒈),
where 𝒘 is weight, 𝒎 is mass and 𝒈 is the gravitational constant, 𝒈 = 32 𝑓𝑡/𝑠2 or 9.8 𝑚/𝑠2 . Often the
weight is given and sometimes the mass is. What differs that each disk must be raised, determined by
taking the total height,𝒉, and subtracting from that the present height of the remaining liquid, 𝒙, and the
volume of each disc.
Example a) Find the work done by pumping out water from the top of a cylindrical tank 3.00 ft. in radius
and 10 ft. tall, if the tank is initially full. (The density of water, 𝜔, is 𝜔=62.4 lb/ft3)
Example b) Find the work done by pumping out molasses from a conical tank filled to 2 ft. from the top
of the tank. The tank has a maximum radius of 3 ft. and a height of 10 ft. Molasses weighs 100 lb/ft 3.
Example c) A hemispherical tank of diameter 8 ft. is full of liquid. Find the work done in pumping the
liquid out the top of the tank.

Many objects are constructed in such a way that their mass changes, either rising or decreasing,
when you lift them. Examples of this may be leaking buckets or chains that are lifted when hanging.
For all cases most of the object’s mass changes at every moment and so the force applied to it to
move it also changes.
The approach here is to consider a small section of the movement, say at a height ℎ and at ∆𝒙
distance, and figure out the weight of the system at that point. This weight is usually a function of 𝒙
itself, so that the work done for such a small section is given by ∆𝑊 ≈ 𝑤ℎ∆𝑥. By adding all the slices
and taking the limit, we obtain an integral of the form

𝑊 = ∫ 𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure that is exerted by a fluid at equilibrium at a given point within the
fluid, due to the force of gravity. Hydrostatic pressure increases in proportion to depth measured from
the surface because of the increasing weight of fluid exerting downward force from above. This lesson
deals with another application of the integral calculus to physics and engineering which is finding the
force due to fluid pressure.
B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)
If a flat plate is submerged horizontally in a liquid inside a container, the weight of the liquid exerts a
force on the plate. This force per unit area exerted by the liquid on the plate is called hydrostatic
pressure. The pressure 𝑷 exerted by a liquid on an object at a depth 𝒉 below the surface of the liquid is
obtained by the formula,
𝑃 = 𝑤ℎ
where 𝒘 is the weight density of the liquid per unit volume. 𝒘 = 𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒚 × 𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒕𝒚 or 𝒘 = 𝝆𝒈 .
Thus, if a plate of area 𝑨 is submerged horizontally in a liquid at a depth h below the surface of the
liquid, the force 𝑭 due to liquid pressure on one side of the plate is 𝐹 = 𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒 × 𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎 or 𝐹 = 𝑤ℎ𝐴.
For example, if a rectangular plate 3 ft x 5 ft is submerged in a tank of water at a dept of 9 ft, then the
force due to liquid pressure on one side of the plate is
𝐹 = 𝑤ℎ𝐴
= 𝑤 (9)(3)(5)
= 𝟏, 𝟎𝟖𝟎 𝒘 𝒍𝒃𝒔
If a plate is submerged vertically in a liquid, the force caused by the liquid on one side of the plate is
difficult to find because the pressure is not constant there but increases as the depth increases. For
instance, the force at the bottom of the plate is greater than at the top. To solve this problem, we use
Pascal’s principle in Physics which states that “at any point in a liquid, the pressure exerted by the
liquid is the same in all direction provided that the points are at the same depth.
Suppose that a flat plate is submerged vertically in a fluid for which a measure of its weight density is 𝒑.
the length of the plate at a depth of 𝒙 units below the surface of the fluid is 𝑓(𝑥) units, where 𝒇 is
continuous on the closed interval [𝒂, 𝒃] and 𝒇(𝒙) ≥ 𝟎 on [𝒂, 𝒃]. if 𝑭 is the force due to fluid pressure on
the plate, then
