   Q.If $\int \frac{3ax}{b^2 + c^2x^2} dx = A \log |b^2 + c^2x^2| + K$, then the value of A is: (A) $3a$ (B) $\frac{3a}{2b^2}$ (C) $\frac{3a}{b^2c^2}$ (D) $\frac{3a}{2c^2}$

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   The integral fits the pattern $\int \frac{du}{u} = \log|u| + C$ after a substitution. The constant $A$ turns out to be $\frac{3a}{2c^2}$, which corresponds to option (D).

   The problem gives you the result of an integral and asks you to identify the constant $A$ that makes the equation true. This is a classic "match the form" question — you don't need to guess; you just need to perform the integration carefully and compare.

   The key insight is that the integrand $\frac{3ax}{b^2 + c^2x^2}$ is a rational function where the numerator is almost the derivative of the denominator. The derivative of $b^2 + c^2x^2$ is $2c^2x$. Our numerator is $3ax$, which is a constant multiple of $x$. So a simple substitution $u = b^2 + c^2x^2$ will turn the integral into $\int \frac{du}{u}$.

   Let's work through it step by step.

   1. Set up the substitution.

      Let $u = b^2 + c^2x^2$. Then $du = 2c^2x \, dx$, so $x \, dx = \frac{du}{2c^2}$.

   2. Rewrite the integral in terms of $u$.

      The integral is $\int \frac{3ax}{b^2 + c^2x^2} \, dx = \int \frac{3a}{u} \cdot (x \, dx)$.

      Substitute $x \, dx = \frac{du}{2c^2}$:

   $\int \frac{3a}{u} \cdot \frac{du}{2c^2} = \frac{3a}{2c^2} \int \frac{du}{u}.$

   3. Integrate. $\int \frac{du}{u} = \log|u| + C$, so

   $\frac{3a}{2c^2} \log|u| + C = \frac{3a}{2c^2} \log|b^2 + c^2x^2| + K,$

   where $K$ is the constant of integration (we renamed $C$ to $K$ to match the problem).

   4. Compare with the given form. …

   Q.Evaluate: $\int x^4 \log x \, dx$

   (OR)

   Evaluate: $\int \frac{2x}{\sqrt[3]{x^2+1}} \, dx$

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   1. $\displaystyle\int x^4\log x\,dx=\tfrac{x^5}{5}\log x-\tfrac{x^5}{25}+C$.
   2. $\displaystyle\int\frac{2x}{\sqrt[3]{x^2+1}}\,dx=\tfrac32(x^2+1)^{2/3}+C$.

   Part (a)

   Use integration by parts, $\displaystyle\int u\,dv=uv-\int v\,du$, choosing $u=\log x$ (differentiates simply) and $dv=x^4\,dx$, so $du=\tfrac1x\,dx$ and $v=\dfrac{x^5}{5}$:

   $\int x^4\log x\,dx=\frac{x^5}{5}\log x-\int\frac{x^5}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{x}\,dx=\frac{x^5}{5}\log x-\frac15\int x^4\,dx.$ …

   Q.Find : $\int \frac{\text{dx}}{\sqrt{9-4x^2}}$

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   The integral $\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{9-4x^2}}$ is a standard inverse sine form. By rewriting the denominator as $\sqrt{4\left(\frac{9}{4} - x^2\right)}$ and using substitution $u = 2x$, we get the result $\frac{1}{2} \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{2x}{3}\right) + C$.

   When you see a square root with a constant minus a square term, your mind should immediately jump to the inverse trigonometric integrals. The classic formula is:

   $\int \frac{du}{\sqrt{a^2 - u^2}} = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{u}{a}\right) + C$

   Our job is to force the given integral into this exact shape. The denominator is $\sqrt{9 - 4x^2}$. Notice that $9 = 3^2$, so we have $a = 3$ in the formula. But the $4x^2$ term is not a pure $u^2$ — it has a coefficient 4. That’s the only obstacle.

   The key insight: Factor out the 4 from inside the square root. Write:

   $\sqrt{9 - 4x^2} = \sqrt{4\left(\frac{9}{4} - x^2\right)} = 2 \sqrt{\frac{9}{4} - x^2}$

   Now the integral becomes:

   $\int \frac{dx}{2 \sqrt{\frac{9}{4} - x^2}} = \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 - x^2}}$

   This is exactly the inverse sine form with $a = \frac{3}{2}$ and $u = x$. So:

   $\frac{1}{2} \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{x}{3/2}\right) + C = \frac{1}{2} \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{2x}{3}\right) + C$

   That’s the answer. But let’s walk through it step by step with a substitution to make it foolproof.

   1. Identify the target form. We want $\int \frac{du}{\sqrt{a^2 - u^2}}$. Here, the denominator has $\sqrt{9 - 4x^2}$. Compare with $a^2 - u^2$: we need $a^2 = 9$ and $u^2 = 4x^2$. So set $u = 2x$. Then $du = 2\,dx$, so $dx = \frac{du}{2}$.

   2. Substitute. The integral becomes:

      $\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{9 - 4x^2}} = \int \frac{du/2}{\sqrt{9 - u^2}} = \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{du}{\sqrt{9 - u^2}}$ …

   Q.Find the value of the integral $\int x^{2}\tan(x^{3}+2)\,dx$.

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Substitute $u=x^{3}+2$; the integral becomes $\tfrac13\int\tan u\,du=\tfrac13\ln|\sec(x^{3}+2)|+C$.

   Concept: The factor $x^{2}$ is (up to a constant) the derivative of the inner function $x^{3}+2$, so substitution works.

   Let $u=x^{3}+2\Rightarrow du=3x^{2}\,dx\Rightarrow x^{2}\,dx=\dfrac{du}{3}$.
