Problem 32

>   Int(1/(r*sqrt(r^2-9)),r)=int(1/(r*sqrt(r^2-9)),r);

Int(1/(r*(r^2-9)^(1/2)),r) = -1/3*arctan(3/(r^2-9)^(1/2))

Problem 40

>   Int(1/sqrt(2*theta-theta^2),theta)=int(1/sqrt(2*theta-theta^2),theta);

Int(1/((2*theta-theta^2)^(1/2)),theta) = arcsin(theta-1)

Problem 66

>   Int(sqrt(1+cos(t)),t=-Pi..0)=int(sqrt(1+cos(t)),t=-Pi..0);

Int((1+cos(t))^(1/2),t = -Pi .. 0) = 2*2^(1/2)

Section 7.2, page 567

Problem 14

>   Int((r^2+r+1)*exp(r),r)=int((r^2+r+1)*exp(r),r);

Int((r^2+r+1)*exp(r),r) = exp(r)*r^2-exp(r)*r+2*exp(r)

Problem 41

(a) Average value:

>   avg:=simplify(1/(2*Pi-0)*int(2*exp(-t)*cos(t),t=0..2*Pi));

avg := 1/2*1/Pi*(-1+exp(2*Pi))*exp(-2*Pi)

>   plot({avg,2*exp(-t)*cos(t)},t=0..2*Pi,color=blue,thickness=2);

Problem 11

We could just do the integral, but we want to point out that Maple can show you a partial fractions decomposition as follows:

>   convert((x+4)/(x^2+5*x-6),parfrac,x);

2/7/(x+6)+5/7/(x-1)

>   Int((x+4)/(x^2+5*x-6),x)=int((x+4)/(x^2+5*x-6),x);

Int((x+4)/(x^2+5*x-6),x) = 5/7*ln(x-1)+2/7*ln(x+6)

Problem 48

We'll find the centroid of the region. First, the area:

>   f:=(4*x^2+13*x-9)/(x^3+2*x^2-3*x);

f := (4*x^2+13*x-9)/(x^3+2*x^2-3*x)

>   area:=int(f,x=3..5);

area := 3*ln(5)-2*ln(3)

Now for the moments around the y  and x axis:

>   My:=int(x*f,x=3..5);

My := 8*ln(2)+8-3*ln(3)

>   Mx:=int(f/2*f,x=3..5);

Mx := -7*ln(5)+17/2*ln(2)+269/240+11/2*ln(3)

>   centroid:=[My/area,Mx/area];

centroid := [(8*ln(2)+8-3*ln(3))/(3*ln(5)-2*ln(3)), (-7*ln(5)+17/2*ln(2)+269/240+11/2*ln(3))/(3*ln(5)-2*ln(3))]

>   evalf(centroid);

Problem 24

>   Int(sqrt(1-x^2)/x^4,x)=int(sqrt(1-x^2)/x^4,x);

Int((1-x^2)^(1/2)/x^4,x) = -1/3/x^3*(1-x^2)^(3/2)

Section 7.6, page 603

Problem 21

>   Int(theta*exp(theta),theta=-infinty..0)=int(theta*exp(theta),theta=-infinity..0);

Int(theta*exp(theta),theta = -infinty .. 0) = -1

Problem 71

First graph the region that we are going to revolve around the y-axis:

>   plot(exp(-x),x=0..10,color=blue,thickness=2);

[Maple Plot]

We'll calculate the volume by shells -- for each x from 0 to infinity, the shell has radius x, thickness dx and height exp(-x).

>   volume:=int(2*Pi*x*exp(-x),x=0..infinity);

volume := 2*Pi
