How to integrate without trigonometric substitution

In summary, we can solve Sx^2(1-x^2)^1/2dx without using x=sen(t) by using tabular integration. However, the only challenging part is integrating (1 - x2)1/2dx. Have you tried any other approaches, such as substitution or integration by parts?

S(x²(1-x²)¹/²)dx
without use x=sen(T)?

Sx^2(1-x^2)^1/2dx

x=sen(t)
dx=cos(t)dt (-pi/2<=t<=pi/2)

S(x^2(1-x^2)^1/2)dx=S(sen^2(t)cos^2(t))dt
S(sen^2(t)cos^2(t)^)dt=S((1-cos^2(2t))/4)dt
=S1/4dt - S((co^2(2t))/4)dt= t + c1 - S((1-cos(4t))/8)dt
=t/4 + c1 - S1/8dt + S(cos(4t)/8)dt= t/4 + c1 - t/8 + sen(4t)/32 + c2
=t/8 + sen(4t)/32 + C
but:
sen(4t)=2sen(2t)cos(2t)=2(2sentcost)(1-2sen^2(t))
=4sentcost-8sen^3(t)cost

and t=arcsen(x)

logo
Sx^2(1-x^2)^1/2dx= 1/8arcsen(x)+ 1/8x(1-x^2)^1/2 - 1/4x^3(1-x^2)^1/2 + C

but show that D(1/8arcsen(x)+ 1/8x(1-x^2)^1/2 - 1/4x^3(1-x^2)^1/2 + C)=x^2(1-x^2)^1/2 is another history!is a very hard work? someone agree with me?

Why without substitution?

Anyways, what approaches have you tried so far? Have you tried any substitutions? What were the results? Have you tried integration by parts? Have you tried something else?

You could use tabular integration (which is a form of integration by parts).

The only problem in that method would be integrating (1 - x2)1/2dx
 

1. How do I integrate without using trigonometric substitution?

One way to integrate without trigonometric substitution is by using the substitution method. This involves substituting a variable for a portion of the integrand and then solving for the new integral using the chain rule.

2. What is the substitution method in integration?

The substitution method in integration is a technique used to simplify integrals by substituting a new variable for a portion of the integrand. This allows for the use of the chain rule to solve the new integral.

3. When should I use the substitution method in integration?

The substitution method is useful when the integrand contains a function that can be simplified by substituting it with a new variable. This is often the case when dealing with expressions involving exponentials, logarithms, or inverse trigonometric functions.

4. Can I use the substitution method for all integrals without trigonometric substitution?

No, the substitution method is not always applicable for all integrals without trigonometric substitution. It is most effective when dealing with certain types of functions, but may not work for more complex integrals.

5. Are there any other methods for integrating without trigonometric substitution?

Yes, there are other methods for integrating without trigonometric substitution such as integration by parts, partial fractions, and using special integration formulas. It is important to know and understand multiple techniques for integration in order to choose the most efficient method for a given integral.
