    What Integration Technique Do I Use ? Example 1. Determining how to integrate a particular function can be challenging. In this video, I try to show how I approach them.

      because you are lazy and think everything will just magically look solvable xD So you give up as soon as something starts looking more complicated than it was.
      First thing, you see people like patrick solve what they have either already solved or they have a lot of experience in solving and of course that it is gonna look like it's supposed to be easy. Secondly, most important thing is to know the basics. Yes, you can overcomplicate a problem to an extent at which you should start over or look up the answer, BUT, be sure that you have at least gotten to that point by using correct "mathematics" (aka didn't miss a minus, didn't do something that you can't with square roots etc.
      Basically don't integrate some function, before you know what that function is, how it behaves, how its plot looks, what can you do with it with some algebra . And do keep going, even when it looks like next step will require too much effort to do. You slowly train that way

  • @nickthorpe7567

    I split the numerator up into 1-ex+2ex so that I could split the fraction up into int[ 2ex/(1-ex) + (1-ex)/(1-ex) ]dx
    Then you get left with
    Int[2ex/(1-ex) + 1]dx
    Int[2ex/(1-ex)]dx + x
    Let u=1-ex
    Let du=-exdx
    -Int[2/u]du + x
    2ln|u| + x
    2ln[1-ex] + x + c
    Little bit more intuitive to me imo!

    @edgaracosta9976 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'd just like to comment that there is a way to at least know how to approach one type of integration problem. If you are multiplying or dividing two functions of a different type, the only approach is integration by parts. For example, finding the integral of (x^2 + 2)(sinx) dx. This type of problem would be impossible to do through substitution because in the most general cases, you need the functions to be of the same type, that way you have a chance of figuring out which one is the derivative of which.

    This is way easier than shown here!
    First, multiply top and bottom by e^{-x/2}, so that:
    (1+e^x)/(1-e^x)
    becomes:
    -(e^{x/2}+e^{-x/2})/(e^{x/2}-e^{-x/2})
    ==-cosh (x/2)/sinh (x/2)
    The integral is easily seen to be:
    -2ln [sinh (x/2)]■
    knowledge of hyperbolic sines and cosines are not necessary here; just do the first step of multiplying by e^{-x/2}, then let u be the denominator. All so much easier than this video shows.

      well it is the relationship between exponents and logarithms.

      Also in order to make the equals sign true he multiplied the other side with ln.
      His way is much easier than trying to solve the integral when both u and du=e^x
