Lesson 7 - InverseTrigFunctions-Integration

1. The document reviews integration of inverse trigonometric functions by relating their derivatives to the integrals of inverse trig functions. 2. Certain integral patterns emerge that involve inverse trig functions like arcsin, arctan, and arcsec when the integral is of the form ∫ du/√(a2 - u2). 3. Examples are provided to demonstrate identifying these patterns in integrals and solving them using the inverse trig function formulas. Completing the square is also discussed as a strategy for integrals involving quadratics.

functions are involved in the integration



Remember we seek (x b)
