Laplace transform of 𝑓(𝑡) is 𝑳{𝒇(𝒕)} = 𝑭(𝒔) = ∫𝟎 𝒆−𝒔𝒕 𝒇(𝒕)𝒅𝒕
1. Linearity
For any two functions 𝑓(𝑡) and 𝑔(𝑡) whose Laplace transform exists and any two constants a
and b we have
𝐿 [𝑎 𝑓 (𝑡) + 𝑏 𝑔(𝑡)] = 𝑎 𝐿{𝑓 (𝑡)} + 𝑏 𝐿{𝑔(𝑡)}.
2. Scaling

If 𝐿 {𝑓 (𝑡)} = 𝐹(𝑠), then 𝐿 [𝑓 (𝑎𝑡)] = F , where a is a positive constant.

If 𝑓(𝑡) be a continuous function at 𝑡 = 𝑎, then ∫0 𝑓(𝑡)𝛿(𝑡 − 𝑎)𝑑𝑡 = 𝑓(𝑎)
INVERSE LAPLACE TRANSFORMS
Let 𝐿{𝑓 (𝑡)} = 𝐹(𝑠), then f(t) is defined as the inverse Laplace transform of 𝐹(𝑠) and is
denoted by 𝐿−1 {𝐹(𝑠)}. Thus 𝐿−1 {𝐹(𝑠)} = 𝑓 (𝑡).
Linearity Property
Let 𝐿−1 {𝐹(𝑠)} = 𝑓 (𝑡) and 𝐿−1 {𝐺(𝑠)} = 𝑔(𝑡) and 𝑎 and 𝑏 be any two constants,
