222 Spring 2021 Worksheet 2
Instructions: Listen to your TA’s instructions. There are substantially more problems on this worksheet than we expect
to be done in discussion, and your TA might not have you do problems in order. The worksheets are intentionally longer
than will be covered in discussion in order to give students additional practice problems they may use to study. Do not
worry if you do not finish the worksheet :).
1. Compute the following integrals using integration by parts. Note: you may need to use integration by parts
repeatedly for some of these problems.
Z
(a) xe3x dx.
Z e
(b) x3 ln(x) dx.
1
Z
(c) (t − 4)et dt.
Z r
(d) r sin dr.
2
1
Z
(e) arctan(s)ds (Hint: arctan(s) = arctan(s) · 1.)
Z
(f) x2 cos(x)dx
Z π
(g) ecos(t) sin(2t) dt
0
Z
(h) cos(x) ln (sin(x)) dx

Z 1
(i) (w2 + 3)e−w dw.
0
n−1
Z Z Z

2. Use the reduction formula n
cos (x) dx = sin(x) cosn−1 (x) + cos n−2
(x) dx to compute cos4 (x) dx.
n n
Z Z Z
n x n x n−1 x
3. Use integration by parts to show that x e dx = x e − n x e dx for n ≥ 1. Then compute x3 ex dx.

4. Let In = (ln(x))n dx. Use integration by parts to show that In = x(ln(x))n − nIn−1 for n ≥ 1. Then compute I4 .
Z
tan(x) secn−2 (x)
6. Let In = secn (x) dx Use integration by parts to show that In = n−1 + n−2
n−1 In−2 (x) for n ≥ 3.
n n−2 2 2 2
Hint: Write first sec (x) = sec (x) sec (x). Recall also that tan (x) = sec (x) − 1.
