Exercise 7.7 Solutions

Q.1: \int \sqrt{1-4x^2}dx

Solution:

\int \sqrt{4-x^2}dx \space = \int \sqrt{2^2-x^2}dx

by putting a = 2 in formula (1), we get

=\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{2^2-x^2} + \frac{2^2}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{x}{2})+c

=\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{4-x^2} + 2\sin^{-1}(\frac{x}{2})+c

Q.2: \int \sqrt{1-4x^2}dx

Solution:

\int \sqrt{1-4x^2}dx \space = \int \sqrt{1-(2x)^2}dx

by putting 2x = y, 2dx = dy, dx = \frac{dy}{2}

=\frac{1}{2}\int \sqrt{1-y^2}dy

now by using formula (1), we get

=\frac{1}{2}[\frac{y}{2} \sqrt{1-y^2} + \frac{1^2}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{y}{1})]+c

now we put y = 2x

=\frac{1}{2}[\frac{2x}{2} \sqrt{1-(2x)^2} + \frac{1^2}{2}\sin^{-1}(2x)]+c

=\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{1-4x^2} + \frac{1}{4}\sin^{-1}(2x)+c

Q.3: \int \sqrt{x^2+4x+6}dx

Solution:

\int \sqrt{x^2+4x+6}dx \space = \int \sqrt{x^2+4x+2^2+2}dx

\int \sqrt{(x+2)^2+(\sqrt2)^2}dx

let (x+2) = y and dx = dy

\int \sqrt{y^2+(\sqrt2)^2}dy

using formula (2) , we get

= \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{y^2+(\sqrt2)^2} + \frac{ (\sqrt2)^2}{2}\ln|y+\sqrt{y^2+(\sqrt2)^2}|+c

now putting y = (x+2)

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{(x+2)^2+(\sqrt2)^2} + \ln|x+2+\sqrt{(x+2)^2+(\sqrt2)^2}|+c

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{x^2+4x+6} + \ln|x+2+\sqrt{x^2+4x+6}|+c

=\int \sqrt{(x+2)^2-(\sqrt3)^2}dx

substitute (x+2) = y and dx = dy

= \int \sqrt{y^2-(\sqrt3)^2}dy \space = \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{y^2-(\sqrt3)^2} - \frac{(\sqrt3)^2}{2}\ln|y+\sqrt{y^2-(\sqrt3)^2}|+c

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{(x+2)^2-(\sqrt3)^2} - \frac{3}{2}\ln|x+2+\sqrt{(x+2)^2-(\sqrt3)^2}|+c

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{x^2+4x+1} - \frac{3}{2}\ln|x+2+\sqrt{x^2+4x+1}|+c

Q.5: \int \sqrt{1-4x-x^2}dx

= \int \sqrt{-((x+2)^2-(\sqrt5)^2)}dx \space = \int \sqrt{(\sqrt5)^2-(x+2)^2}dx

now putting (x+2) = y and dx = dy

\int \sqrt{(\sqrt5)^2-y^2}dy

using formula (1)

= \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{(\sqrt5)^2-y^2} + \frac{(\sqrt5)^2}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{y}{\sqrt5})+c

now putting (x+2) =y

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{(\sqrt5)^2-(x+2)^2} + \frac{5}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{x+2}{\sqrt5})+c

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{1-4x-x^2} + \frac{5}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{x+2}{\sqrt5})+c

now substitute (x+2) = y and dx = dy

\int \sqrt{y^2-3^2}dy \space = \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{y^2-3^2} - \frac{3^2}{2}\ln|y+\sqrt{y^2-3^2}|+c

now put (x+2) = y

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{(x+2)^2-3^2} - \frac{9}{2}\ln|x+2+\sqrt{(x+2)^2-3^2}|+c

= \frac{(x+2)}{2} \sqrt{x^2+4x-5} - \frac{9}{2}\ln|x+2+\sqrt{x^2+4x-5}|+c

= \int \sqrt{-((x-\frac{3}{2})^2-(\frac{\sqrt13}{2})^2)}dx

= \int \sqrt{(\frac{\sqrt13}{2})^2-(x-\frac{3}{2})^2}dx

now substitute , (x-\frac{3}{2}) = y and dx = dy

= \int \sqrt{(\frac{\sqrt13}{2})^2-y^2}dy

using formula (1), we get

= \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{(\frac{\sqrt13}{2})^2-y^2} + \frac{(\frac{\sqrt13}{2})^2}{2}\sin^{-1}(\frac{y}{\frac{\sqrt13}{2}})+c

= \frac{(x-\frac{3}{2})}{2} \sqrt{(\frac{\sqrt13}{2})^2-(x-\frac{3}{2})^2} + \frac{13}{8}\sin^{-1}(\frac{(x-\frac{3}{2})}{\frac{\sqrt13}{2}})+c

now substitute (x+\frac{3}{2}) = y and dx = dy

= \int \sqrt{y^2 - (\frac{3}{2})^2}dy

using formula (3) , we get

= \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{y^2-(\frac{3}{2})^2} - \frac{(\frac{3}{2})^2}{2}\ln|y+\sqrt{y^2-(\frac{3}{2})^2}|+c

= \frac{(x+\frac{3}{2})}{2} \sqrt{(x+\frac{3}{2})^2-(\frac{3}{2})^2} - \frac{9}{2}\ln|x+\frac{3}{2}+\sqrt{(x+\frac{3}{2})^2-(\frac{3}{2})^2}|+c

\int \sqrt{x^2-8x+7}dx \space = \int \sqrt{x^2-8x+4^2-4^2+7}dx

= \int \sqrt{(x-4)^2-3^2}dx

let (x-4) = y and dx = dy

\int\sqrt{y^2-3^2}dy

using formula (3)

\int \sqrt{y^2-3^2}dy \space = \frac{y}{2} \sqrt{y^2-3^2} - \frac{3^2}{2}\ln|y+\sqrt{y^2-3^2}|+c

Now put y = (x-4) and after simplifying
