Calculus 2 - Integration by Trigonometric Substitution
Case 1:
∫ 𝑎² − 𝑥² 𝑑𝑥
Use substitution 𝑥 = 𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃
𝑑𝑥 = 𝑎𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃𝑑𝜃
Case 2:
∫ 𝑥² − 𝑎² 𝑑𝑥
Use Substitution 𝑥 = 𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑐𝜃
𝑑𝑥 = 𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑐𝜃𝑡𝑎𝑛𝜃𝑑𝜃
Case 3:
∫ 𝑥² + 𝑎² 𝑑𝑥 OR ∫ 𝑎² + 𝑥² 𝑑𝑥
Use Substitution 𝑥 = 𝑎𝑡𝑎𝑛𝜃
𝑑𝑥 = 𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑐²𝜃𝑑𝜃
, 1) ∫ 49 − 𝑥² 𝑑𝑥
Case 1:
𝑎² = 49
𝑎 = 49
𝑎 = 7
𝑥 = 7𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃
𝑑𝑥 = 7𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃𝑑𝜃
Substitute 𝑥 = 7𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 and 𝑑𝑥 = 7𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃𝑑𝜃 into the original integral
∫ 49 − (7𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃)² 7𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 𝑑𝜃
This integral is now in trigonometric terms
∫ 49 − 49𝑠𝑖𝑛²𝜃 7𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 𝑑𝜃
∫ 49(1 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛²𝜃) 7𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 𝑑𝜃
∫ 49𝑐𝑜𝑠²𝜃 7𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 𝑑𝜃

,The expression in the green box is the answer however, we need to convert this
answer to an expression in terms of 𝑥 since the original question was in terms of 𝑥.
We will add the + C at the very end in the final answer to avoid any confusion.

𝑥 = 7𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 → This is the first substitution we used at the beginning of the question.
