Activity 5.4.2.
Evaluate each of the following indefinite integrals. Check each antiderivative that you find by differentiating.
(a)
\(\displaystyle \int te^{-t} \, dt\)
(b)
\(\displaystyle \int 4x \sin(3x) \, dx\)
(c)
\(\displaystyle \int z \sec^2(z) \,dz\)
Note: after applying integration by parts, we need to evaluate \(\int \tan(z) \, dz\text{.}\) To do so, recall that \(\tan(z) = \frac{\sin(z)}{\cos(z)}\) and think about a \(u\)-substitution that leads to an antiderivative for \(\tan(z)\text{.}\)
(d)
\(\displaystyle \int x \ln(x) \, dx\)
