efficiencie: i guess ur encouragement paid off, i'v been trying sir chides' questn bt d soln az been eluding me...bt dis tym, i gues i nailed it


∫(1/(cosk + cosx))dx

Let cosk=1/a

= a∫(1/(1 + acosx))dx

= a∫(1/(cos^2(x/2) + sin^2(x/2) + acos^2(x/2) - asin^2(x/2) ))dx

= a∫(1/(cos^2(x/2) + acos^2(x/2) + sin^2(x/2) - asin^2(x/2)))dx

= a∫(1/((1+a)cos^2(x/2) + (1-a)sin^2(x/2)))dx

= a∫sec^2(x/2)dx/((1+a) + (1-a)tan^2(x/2)))

= (a/(1+a))∫sec^2(x/2)dx/(1 + {√[(1-a)/(1+a)].tan(x/2)}^2)

Let tan(u/2)=√[(1-a)/(1+a)].tan(x/2)

(1/2)sec^2(u/2)du=(1/2)√[(1-a)/(1+a)].sec^2(x/2)dx

√[(1+a)/(1-a)].sec^2(u/2)du= sec^2(x/2)dx

hence
(a/(1+a)) ∫sec^2(x/2)dx/(1 + {√[(1-a)/(1+a)].tan(x/2)}^2)

Becomes
= (a/(1+a)) ∫√[(1+a)/(1-a)].sec^2(u/2)du /(1 + tan^2(u/2))

= (a/(1+a)). √[(1+a)/(1-a)]∫du

= (a/(1+a)) .√[(1+a)/(1-a)]u

= {2a/√[(1+a).(1-a)]}. arctan{√[(1-a)/(1+a)]tan(x/2)}
Where 1/a=cosk

over to the auditors
Like u said, let cosk=1/a
Let $=integral sign
>>>$[1/(cosk+cosx)]dx=a$[1/(1+acosx)]dx
Which is the same as a$[1+acosx]^(-1) dx
Using binomial expansion
Let C=combination
a$[1+acosx]^(-1) dx=a$[1+ (-1)C1acosx+(-1)C2acos^2 x+....]dx
Now -1C1=-1 and -1C2=1
>> a$[1+cosx]^(-1) dx=a$[1-acosx+a^2cos^2 x +....]dx
=a[x-asinx+$(a^2 cos^2 x)dx+...] +c
Now cos^2 x=[1+cos2x]/2
>>a$[1+cosx]^(-1) dx=a[x-asinx+(a^2 x)/2 + (a^2 sin2x)/4]+.... +c
Since cosk=1/a >>> a=1/cosk.
Therefore $[1/(cosk+cosx)]=a[x - asinx + (a^2 x)/2 + (a^2 sin2x)/4 + ..... ] + c.

EducationRe: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by oladistinct(m):
benbuks: A,b,c is a geometric progression (a,b,c are positive integer) such that
a+b+c=26

and a^2+b^2+c^2=364

find the value of a,b,c
asap .
Let us consider the expansion of [a+b+c]^2
[a+b+c]^2=a^2+b^2+c^2+2[ab+ac+bc]
Now a+b+c=26 and a^2+b^2+c^2=364
>>26^2=364+2[a+b+c]
676-364=2[ab+ac+bc]
ab+ac+bc=312/2=156
we now have ab+ac+bc=156.............(i)
and a+b+c=26....................(ii)
Since the progression is geometric
Tn=ar^[n-1]
>>b=ar and c=ar^2 since b and c are 2nd and 3rd term respectively
Substitute these into equation (i) and (ii)
a+ar+ar^2=26 >>>a[1+r+r^2]=26.......(iii)
also a^2r+a^2r^2+a^2r^3=156
>>>a^2r[1+r+r^2]=156.........(iv)
Divide iv by iii
[a^2r(1+r+r^2)]/[a(1+r+r^2)]=156/26
>>>ar=6 therefore r=6/a
Now b=ar=6
c=ar^2=[ar]r=6r
From a+b+c=26
a+6+6r=26
a+6r=20
Now r=6/a
a+6[6/a]=20
a+36/a=20
>>> a^2+36=20a
a^2-20a+36=0
Solving the above quadratic equstn
a=18 and 2
using a=2
Since c=ar^2
Now r=6/a=6/2=3
>>>c=2*3^2=2*9=18
Therefore a=2, b=6 and c=18.

benbuks: 2..$ [ xlnx/(1+x^2)^2 ] dx
Integral xlnx/[1+x^2]^2dx
Integration by part
U=lnx >> du=dx/x
dv=x/[1+x^2]^2dx
Let p=1+x^2
dp=2xdx >>dx=dp/2x
Therefore v=integral [x/p^2]*dp/2x
=integral 1/2[p^-2]dp
=-1/2p
Since p=1+x^2
>>>v=-1/2[1+x^2]
Now integral udv=uv- integral vdu
>>integral xlnx/[1+x^2]^2dx= -lnx/2[1+x^2]- 1/2integral[-1/1+x^2]*1/xdx
=-lnx/2(1+x^2)+1/2integral[1/x(1+x^2)]dx
Resolving 1/x(1+x^2) into partial fraction
1/x(1+x^2)=1/x -x/1+x^2
We now have -lnx/2(1+x^2)+1/2integral[1/x -x/1+x^2]dx
We can adjust x/1+x^2 to 1/2[2x/x^2+1]
>>integral xlnx/[1+x^2]^2=-lnx/2(1+x^2)+1/2lnx-1/4ln[x^2+1].

layez: bozz i tried solving dis qwest by follown ur steps bt i dint gt it.... If dv= 1/sqr(1-2x)?? Den V can nv be arcsin sqr(2x)...
If dv=1/sqr(1-2x)dx
Integrating both sides
Integral dv= integral 1/sqr(1-(sqr2x)^2)dx
This is identical to the standard integral 1/sqr(1-x^2)dx which will give arcsinx
Therefore integral 1/sqr(1-(sqr2x)^2) will yield arcsin(sqr2x).
Hope that helps
EducationRe: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by oladistinct(m):
benbuks: 1 ..$[arcsin√(2x) /√(1-2x) ] dx
I want to believe $ means integral.
Integral arcsin(sqr2x)/sqr(1-2x)
Using the method of integration by parts.
Let u=arcsin(sqr2x) and dv=1/sqr(1-2x)dx
Now du=dx/sqr(1-(sqr2x)^2) and v=arcsin(sqr2x)
It now implies that du=dx/sqr(1-2x)
Integral udv =uv- integral vdu
>> integral [arcsin(sqr2x)/sqr(1-2x)]=
arcsin(sqr2x)*arcsin(sqr2x) - integral [arcsin(sqr2x)dx/sqr(1-2x)]
Collecting like terms
2[Integral arcsin(sqr2x)/sqr(1-2x)]= sin^-2(sqr2x)
Therefore integral [arcsin(sqr2x)/sqr(1-2x)]=
[Sin^-2sqr(2x)]/2 + c

EducationRe: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by oladistinct(m):
benbuks: let 's try this welcome back question

compute the anti-derivative of [arcsin(lnx) ] dx



asap .
Integral [arcsin(lnx)]dx=? Now, applying the method of integration by part. Let arcsin(lnx)=u and dx=dv. Integrating both dv and dx will yield v=x. To differentiate arcsin(lnx) let lnx=w, therefore arcsin(lnx)=arcsinw.
Since arcsin(lnx)=arcsinw=u; >> du/dw =1/[sqr(1-w^2)].
From w=lnx, >> dw/dx =1/x.
Therefore du/dx =[1/[sqr(1-w^2)]] * 1/x.
Since w=lnx, >>> du/dx = [1/1-sqr(lnx^2)] * 1/x.
We can now say that du=dx/[xsqr(1-lnx^2].
Now integral udv=uv- integral vdu
>> integral arcsin(lnx) = xarcsin(lnx) - integral xdx/xsqr(1-lnx)^2)+c.
To integrate dx/sqr(1-lnx^2) let lnx=sinu
Therefore dx/x = cosudu >> dx=xcosudu.
Now integral 1/sqr(1-lnx^2)=integral [1/sqr(1-sin^2 u)]*xcosudu.
Which equal to integral xcosudu/sqr(1-sin^2 u).
From sin^2 u + cos^2 u = 1 >>> 1-sin^2 u=cos^2 u.
We now have integral xcosu/sqrcos^2 u = xcosu/cosudu.
Therefore integral dx/sqr(1-lnx^2) = integral xdu.
Since lnx=sinu >> x=e^sinu.
Integral dx/sqr(1-lnx^2)= integral e^sinudu
From maclaurin series e^x=1+x+x^2/2+.......
>>e^sinu=1+u+u^2u/2!+......
Integral e^sinudu=u+u^2/2+u^3/6+...
Now lnx=sinu
>>u=arcsin(lnx)
Integral e^sinudu= arcsin(lnx)+1/2[arcsinlnx]^2+1/6[arcsinlnx]^3+......
Combining the results
Integral arcsin(lnx)dx= xarcsin(lnx)+arcsinlnx+1/2[arcsinlnx]^2+1/6[arcsinlnx]^3

I hope I'm not wrong

chronique: To everyone who says there is no God: all I need y'all to do is to prove to me how man was created/came into existence. If you can tell me how man's flesh was made,how your respiratory system was designed,how your brain was programmed,how the concept of blood being the soul of a man,was achieved,etc;I'd believe there's no God. It's only a fool that will claim He knows for sure,and can give you adequate info on what happened in a place He has never been to. It's only a fool that will come out and contradict historical events that occurred before his/her birth. It's only a fool that will wake up and say a way of life that has been observed by thousands of generations in the past,is false,without giving concrete evidences to prove it. You cannot explain how you came into existence,yet you claim there's no creator or God? Smh. The difference between the fool and the wise is that,the wise will believe there's God,only to find out at the end that there is no God. But the foolish will assume there's no GOD,only to discover at the end,that there is a God that created heaven and earth.
I understand you quite well; because the human body is complex and you can't explain how it was formed gave rise to your god hypothesis. It's almost impossible to know what transpired many years ago when life first grazed our planet but i tell you, the big bang theory is one of those theories that try to explain how the universe and life came into being. It is not a perfect theory to me though but it makes sense more than the theory of creation in the bible where god put the carth before the horse by creating earth before the sun and go on to create the first man with dust and breath of life: your god must be a magician.
