65 00:03:05,370 --> 00:03:09,122 Because what's the derivative of the tangent function? 66 00:03:09,122 --> 00:03:09,955 It's secant squared. 67 00:03:09,955 --> 00:03:11,080 Right? 68 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,530 So this is actually a straight up u-substitution, or 69 00:03:14,530 --> 00:03:16,080 substitution type problem. 70 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,890 So this, I can finish and I will later, 71 00:03:17,890 --> 00:03:19,140 but this will be substitution. 72 00:03:21,980 --> 00:03:23,980 So I'll finish that in a little bit. 73 00:03:23,980 --> 00:03:25,720 But what about this? 74 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,520 Now I have tan squared theta d theta. 75 00:03:29,738 --> 00:03:31,238 That's, you know, we don't have any, 76 00:03:31,238 --> 00:03:32,970 we don't have a secant here. 77 00:03:32,970 --> 00:03:34,450 We don't have secant squared here, 78 00:03:34,450 --> 00:03:36,991 which would make it obviously nice-- that's what we had here. 79 00:03:36,991 --> 00:03:39,074 So we need to do something else with this. 80 00:03:39,074 --> 00:03:40,490 Well, what I'm going to do is, I'm 81 00:03:40,490 --> 00:03:43,320 again going to use the trigonometric identity. 82 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,700 I'm going to replace this tangent squared theta 83 00:03:47,700 --> 00:03:50,760 by secant squared theta minus 1. 84 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,430 Let's think about, why is that good? 85 00:03:52,430 --> 00:03:55,000 Well, that's good because what I end up 86 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,150 with is, if I have secant squared theta minus 1-- 87 00:03:58,150 --> 00:03:59,990 is what this will equal-- secant squared 88 00:03:59,990 --> 00:04:01,694 theta is easy to integrate. 89 00:04:01,694 --> 00:04:03,610 Because it's the derivative of a trig function 90 00:04:03,610 --> 00:04:05,860 we know-- it's the derivative of tangent. 91 00:04:05,860 --> 00:04:08,640 And 1, I think, is pretty easy to integrate, too. 92 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,960 So we have two functions we can integrate very easily. 93 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,240 So I'm going to bring this back up on the next line, 94 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:16,890 I'm going to do the replacement here, 95 00:04:16,890 --> 00:04:19,717 and then we'll finish the problem. 96 00:04:19,717 --> 00:04:20,800 So let me write this down. 97 00:04:28,151 --> 00:04:28,650 OK. 98 00:04:28,650 --> 00:04:32,330 Now I'm going to do my replacement and minus 99 00:04:32,330 --> 00:04:41,249 the quantity the integral secant squared theta minus 1 d theta. 100 00:04:41,249 --> 00:04:43,040 Let's make sure I didn't make any mistakes. 101 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,140 So I had tan squared theta secant squared theta d theta. 102 00:04:46,140 --> 00:04:47,110 That looks good. 103 00:04:47,110 --> 00:04:49,229 And then I'm subtracting tan squared 104 00:04:49,229 --> 00:04:51,270 theta, the integral of tan squared theta d theta. 105 00:04:51,270 --> 00:04:51,980 And that's that. 106 00:04:51,980 --> 00:04:53,490 So I'm OK. 107 00:04:53,490 --> 00:04:56,490 So this one, again, I mentioned that this 108 00:04:56,490 --> 00:04:58,300 is going to be a substitution. 109 00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:00,130 If you need to write it out explicitly, 110 00:05:00,130 --> 00:05:03,250 this is u equals tan theta, so du 111 00:05:03,250 --> 00:05:06,474 is equal to secant squared theta d theta. 112 00:05:06,474 --> 00:05:08,015 So this is the integral of u squared. 113 00:05:08,015 --> 00:05:09,760 Right? 114 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,614 If I substitute in I get u squared du. 115 00:05:11,614 --> 00:05:13,030 So it's the integral of u squared, 116 00:05:13,030 --> 00:05:15,460 which is u cubed over 3. 117 00:05:15,460 --> 00:05:20,880 So that first part is going to be tan cubed theta over 3. 118 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,654 That's my first term. 119 00:05:22,654 --> 00:05:24,320 That's a straight up substitution pretty 120 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,440 similar to what you've seen. 121 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,960 Now I have two things to integrate. 122 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,010 I have to integrate secant squared theta, 123 00:05:30,010 --> 00:05:31,600 and I have to integrate the 1. 124 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,506 Well, derivative of tangent is secant squared. 125 00:05:35,506 --> 00:05:36,880 So the integral of secant squared 126 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,506 theta is just tangent theta. 127 00:05:39,506 --> 00:05:40,880 So I have to subtract, so there's 128 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,110 a minus sign, a tangent theta. 129 00:05:44,110 --> 00:05:49,130 And then I have a minus, minus, so when I integrate 1 d theta, 130 00:05:49,130 --> 00:05:52,740 I'm going to get a plus theta. 131 00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:54,260 And then, obviously, because it's 132 00:05:54,260 --> 00:05:56,710 a family of possible solutions, I 133 00:05:56,710 --> 00:05:59,170 can add a constant there, plus c. 134 00:05:59,170 --> 00:06:00,760 So again, where did these come from? 135 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,300 This first one was a u-substitution 136 00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:06,300 on the first integral. 137 00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:08,310 And then over here I have another integral 138 00:06:08,310 --> 00:06:10,200 with two terms inside. 139 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,385 The first one is just the, I just 140 00:06:12,385 --> 00:06:13,760 need to integrate secant squared. 141 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,370 I get tangent theta. 142 00:06:15,370 --> 00:06:17,562 The second one, I just need to integrate the 1, 143 00:06:17,562 --> 00:06:19,020 and so I have a negative, negative. 144 00:06:19,020 --> 00:06:21,160 That makes it a positive theta. 145 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,287 And then I have to add my constant. 146 00:06:23,287 --> 00:06:25,120 So let's come back and just remind ourselves 147 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:25,828 where we started. 148 00:06:25,828 --> 00:06:27,360 We started with this trig function 149 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,620 that was a power of tangent. 150 00:06:29,620 --> 00:06:32,870 And what we ultimately did is we took 151 00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:36,120 two of the powers of tangent, we made a substitution 152 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,570 with the appropriate trigonometric identity 153 00:06:38,570 --> 00:06:40,820 to make this an easier problem to solve. 154 00:06:40,820 --> 00:06:42,650 And actually-- yeah-- if you take 155 00:06:42,650 --> 00:06:45,710 two of the powers of tangent away and replace them by this, 156 00:06:45,710 --> 00:06:48,334 then you're always going to end up with something of this form, 157 00:06:48,334 --> 00:06:49,997 tangent to the power 2 less times 158 00:06:49,997 --> 00:06:52,080 secant squared theta d theta, which you can always 159 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,810 handle by a u-substitution. 160 00:06:53,810 --> 00:06:55,802 And you're going to end up with an integral-- 161 00:06:55,802 --> 00:06:57,760 now here's where it gets a little tough-- here, 162 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,220 you wouldn't have tangent squared. 163 00:06:59,220 --> 00:07:01,500 I think I might have said that incorrectly earlier. 164 00:07:01,500 --> 00:07:05,230 If this was any power, here, you wouldn't have tangent squared. 165 00:07:05,230 --> 00:07:08,840 You would have had whatever-- if this was power n, 166 00:07:08,840 --> 00:07:10,990 this would be power n minus 2, so this 167 00:07:10,990 --> 00:07:12,205 would be power n minus 2. 168 00:07:12,205 --> 00:07:13,550 Right? 169 00:07:13,550 --> 00:07:17,250 So if this was power 8, when we do the substitution, 170 00:07:17,250 --> 00:07:20,770 this'll be power 6, so this would be power 6, 171 00:07:20,770 --> 00:07:22,460 so this would be power 6. 172 00:07:22,460 --> 00:07:24,080 So you'd have to do the process again. 173 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,290 This should remind you of the reduction formulas you've seen. 174 00:07:27,290 --> 00:07:30,585 So it's good of it's even, because if this is power 6, 175 00:07:30,585 --> 00:07:32,210 you do the problem again and you end up 176 00:07:32,210 --> 00:07:34,057 with, the second term has a power 4. 177 00:07:34,057 --> 00:07:36,390 You do the problem again, the second term has a power 2, 178 00:07:36,390 --> 00:07:38,060 and, oh, we know how to deal with those. 179 00:07:38,060 --> 00:07:40,580 So we like it when it's an even power. 180 00:07:40,580 --> 00:07:44,419 So that's kind of how these even powers of tangent, 181 00:07:44,419 --> 00:07:46,210 you can take, you can find anti-derivatives 182 00:07:46,210 --> 00:07:48,929 of the even powers of tangent by this strategy 183 00:07:48,929 --> 00:07:50,970 that winds up, you could actually get a reduction 184 00:07:50,970 --> 00:07:52,655 formula out of this. 185 00:07:52,655 --> 00:07:55,030 But I think that's where I should stop with this problem, 186 00:07:55,030 --> 00:07:57,960 and I hope you enjoyed it.
