    How can integration by parts be used twice to solve ∫ e^at. sinωt dt?

    Hi, how about this: ∫eat sinωt dt u=sinωt du=ωcosωt dt v=∫eat dt = 1/a eat ∫eat sinωt dt = 1/a eat sinωt - ∫1/a eat ωcosωt dt ∫eat sinωt dt = 1/a eat sinωt - ω/a ∫eat cosωt dt u=cosωt du= -ωsinωt dt v=∫eat dt = 1/a eat ∫eat sinωt dt =...

    Area of Surface of Revolution of Plane Curve - Use 1/2 Interval?

    Homework Statement Find the area of the surface generated by revolving the curve Homework Equations x = 5(cos3t), y = 5(sin3t), 0 ≤ t ≤ \pi, about the y axis. The Attempt at a Solution x' = -15(cos2t)(sin t) y' = 15(sin2t)(cos t) (I think this forms the top part of an astroid)...

    Stuck At the Last Step Simplifying A Series

    Homework Statement Find a power series for the function, centered at c, and determine the interval of convergence. Homework Equations g(x) = 2 / (1-x^2) , c=0 The Attempt at a Solution 2 / (1+x)(1-x) = 1/(1+x) + 1/(1-x) 1/(1-(-x)) => Sum [(-1)^n (x^n)], n=0 to infinity. Converges when...
