Exercise 7

Avg difficulty 2.5

For each of the following integrals involving radical functions, (1) use an appropriate uu-substitution along with Appendix to evaluate the integral without the assistance of technology, and (2) use a CAS to evaluate the original integral to test and compare your result in (1).

  1. ∫1x9x2+25 dx\int \frac{1}{x \sqrt{9x^2 + 25}} \, dx

  2. ∫x1+x4 dx\int x \sqrt{1 + x^4} \, dx

  3. ∫ex4+e2x dx\int e^x \sqrt{4 + e^{2x}} \, dx

  4. ∫tan⁡(x)9−cos⁡2(x) dx\int \frac{\tan(x)}{\sqrt{9 - \cos^2(x)}} \, dx
