Properties of indenite integrals
Properties of denite integrals
For a, b, and c are real numbers,

cf (x) dx = c
f (x) dx;

(f (x) g(x)) dx =
f (x) dx
g(x) dx.

Integration by substitution
Integration by substitution
If u = u(x) is a dierentiable function and f is continuous, then
g(u)
du
dx
dx =
g(u)u
(x) dx =
g(u) du.
We can preform the method of integration by substitution as follows:
1
Write the integral as the form
f (x) dx =
g(u)
du
dx
dx,
for some inside function u = u(x).
2
Then du =
du
dx
dx and so
f (x) dx =
g(u) du.
Therefore, we can evaluate the latter integral instead.

Method of Partial Fractions
Strategy for integrating a rational function
P(x)
Q(x)
:
1
If degree of P(x) degree of Q(x), try long division. Then apply the
method of partial fractions on the remainder.
2
If Q(x) is the product of distinct linear factors, pick partial fractions of
the form
A
x c
.
3
If Q(x) contains a repeated linear factor, (x c)
n
, pick partial fractions
of the form
