Important background info before you start:

In order to be good at integration in year 2, it is really important to first realise that if you differentiate your
integrated answer, you must get the function you wanted to integrate in the first place
" =

If you differentiate you get

For example
$#
" $ " %$ = +(
4

$! #
Differentiating the answer + ( gives # $ " + 0 = $ " which matches $ "
#

So, never be afraid of year 2 integration. You can check your answer by differentiating and seeing whether you
get what is inside the integral J

Recall your rules for the 4 types of differentiation (your differentiation rules need to be strong as integration
relies on being able to go backwards. It basically asks, given the differentiated function, can you find what the
original function was? The differentiation rules learnt are as follows:
• Harder powers – bring the power down, subtract one from the power and multiply by the derivative of
what is inside the bracket
• Exponentials – copy the exponential and multiply by derivative of the power (and multiply by ln(base)
if base is not e)
%&'()*+()&
• *+ – goes to a fraction which is -./0 (notice how there is no ,- in sight anymore)
• Trig – function changes to the correct trig function and multiply by derivative of the angle

So, it should make sense that for integration that each type has its own rule, just like for differentiation! Very
“loosely” our rules for integration are
• Harder powers – add one to power and divide (similar to year 1 except we have a function inside the bracket)
• Exponentials – copy the exponential
• Fractions – these can be a pain to integrate since they can ,- but they can also many types such as
• bring up and harder powers and many other types amongst other things which you will see soon
• Trig – Ask yourself what function differentiates to this (easiest to just memorise the 6 basic results).
Similar to fractions, trig integration can also be a pain, but for different reasons. The trig function can
become unrecognisable when differentiated and we might need to use identities first before we can
even recognise what function differentiates to the given integral.

I say “loosely ” above since this is not fully done - the equivalent of the pink in the differentiation section is
missing! Let’s call what we have done above ‘half-integrated’. To take into into account the equivalent of the
pink part when integrating), we must check that our half-integrated answer matches what is inside our
integral (if it doesn’t there is some work to do which you’ll see on the following pages)

So far, it should just make sense that


(1 + $ 1 )2 differentiates to 10$(1 + $ 1 )#

This means that


" 10$(1 + $ 1 )# %$ = (1 + $ 1 )2 + (

It is not as easy to spot this tough. Meaning if we are just given ∫ 10$(1 + $ 1 )# %$, how do we instantly know
the answer is (1 + $ 1 )2 + (?

You’ll see how in the following pages J

Method:

Step 1: Look if you can take any numbers (products) outside of the integral

Step 2: Locate the function which is a bracket raised to a power (the main function) and ignore whatever function is in front of this (you may be lucky and there may be
nothing here)
%(')ä

Step 3: Apply the power rule of integration - Add one to the power of %(') and divide by this power to get the green.
%(')äãå

This is not your answer, but a possible answer. We need to do step 4 to decide if something further needs to be done.

ç(~)NOP
Step 4: Differentiate the function from step 3 green to check you get is what is inside the integral which is ,é(-) ,(-)c . If you do then you’re done. If you do
äãå
not then proceed to step 5 (why do we differentiate? Remember the rule of integration. If you differentiate you answer if must give you what you wanted to
integrate). Hindsight: This is why we could ignore ,é (-) in the first place since it pops out when we differentiate.

Step 5: SCALE/correct your answer in step 3 by a number in order to turn your function found in step 4 into the integral. In other words, to scale, ask yourself what you
need to do to your function (what number to multiply or divide by) to get what is inside the integral?

**Important ** Scale/correct with numbers only (not variables) in order to get what is inside of the integral given. You can only multiply and divide to
scale, not add or subtract. If you want to correct with a variable/ letter it means reverse chain rule/recognition/inspection cannot be used and you must use parts
or substitution which you’ll see in another document.

Hindsight: why could we ignore the pink part in step 2? since the derivative ‘pops’ out when we know the rule of integration is that if we differentiate our answer it must
be what is inside the integral so the fact that the correct derivative is there (with a possible number change) is what we need.

This example is to show when


this method doesn’t work and
you need parts or substitution!
Of course. you can use
substitution for all these types,
but why use it when we don’t
need it. It is a bit overkill and if
you really want to be good at
integration you should
understand this and be able to
use reverse chain rule.

The same goes for these two

• ∫ '√' + 1

Method:

Step 1: Look if you can take any numbers (products) outside of the integral

Step 2: Locate the function which is a bracket raised to a power (the main function) and ignore whatever function is in front of this (you may be lucky
and there may be nothing here)

Step 3: Copy the entire exponential. Why do we do this? We know when we differentiate the exponential is copied so it needs to be the same.

Fractions
Students find fractions tough as fractions can be so many types. There are 5 main types:

`T (h)
1. Is it "# (natural logarithm)? Form ∫
`(h)
H-
To recognize this type: the power in the denominator is (almost always) 1. When you bring the denominator up to the numerator using negative power indices
rule you get a power of−1. By adding one to the power and dividing it, you’ll end up dividing by zero which you can’t do

Method:
Step 1: Look if you can take any numbers (products) outside of the integral

Step 2: Locate the denominator (the main function) and ignore whatever function is in the numerator
%(')

Step 3: Write ln of the denominator. Why do we do this? We know when we differentiate ln the denominator is a copy of the exact argument so it needs to be
the same.
ln %(')
This is not your answer, but a possible answer. We need to do step 4 to decide if something further needs to be done.

Step 4: Differentiate the function from step 3 green to check you get is what is inside the integral. If you do then you’re done. If you do not then proceed to
step 5 (why do we differentiate? Remember the rule of integration. If you differentiate you answer if must give you what you wanted to
integrate)

Step 5: SCALE/correct your answer in step 4 by a number in order to give you what is inside the integral. In other words, ask yourself
what you need to do to your function to get what is inside the integral?

**Important ** Scale/correct with numbers only (not variables) in order to get what is inside of the integral given. You can only multiply and
divide to scale, not add or subtract. If you want to correct with a variable/ letter it means reverse chain rule/recognition/inspection cannot
be used and you must use parts or substitution which you’ll see in another document.

# NOP
2. Is it an easy power year 1 type?∫ % & &% =
&'(

+(#)NOP
3. Is it a bring up and harder power type? Bring the power up and becomes the form ∫ ,) (.) ,(.)* 0. =
&'(

To recognize these : there is a power in the denominator other than

Method: see power type

4. Can I do something first and then it becomes one of the types above?

a) Indices rules to simplify and/or expand brackets


o % . × % / = % .'/
#U
o = % .0/
#V
1 1
o 23456 % 0( .
2# 2
X
W 3 W
o ( √% ) or √% 3 = % W

b) Factorise and maybe cancel first

c) splitting fractions
.'/ . /
= +
4 4 4

d) Partial fractions - recognisable by products in the denominator.


… 7 8
• Form 1 (4#'!)(6#'+) = +
4#'! 6#'+
… 7 8 :
• Form 2 (!#'6)(+#'9)Q = + + (+#'9)Q
!#'6 +#'9
… 7 8#':
• Form 3 = + (not In A Level - only advanced courses have this form)
(!#'6)(+# Q '9) !#'6 +# Q '9

e) Divide first? Recognisable by two or more terms in the denominator and also where we have the matching highest powers in both numerator and denominator or
a higher power in the numerator

5. Is it inverse trig? (this is for further maths students may need to complete the square first)

Either use the inverse trig results below

1 1 =%
1 1 0( =% 1 1 =% 9 &% = tan0( A B + D
9 &% = sin A B + 9− &% = cos 0( A B + D 4; + (=%); 4= 4
;4; − (=%); = 4 ;4; − (=%); = 4

OR use a trig substitution

You may need to rewriting/adapt the fraction in a clever way

Take a step back for a second before continuing. You may now be wondering two things
• How can we recognise the difference between ln and power? Why can’t we bring up and power always? Let’s see…

Å -/
7/ + 3
Å 5(7/ + 3)#' -/
(7/ + 3)B
Ñ = 5É
0
We cannot divide by zero! Hence is the denominator has power 1 it is likely ′Üa′ is involved.
*,
• What can’t use we ‘Üa’ for something like ∫ (%," " -/ ?
#')
This cannot be ′Üa′ since the derivative of the denominator needs to be in the numerator and we can’t scale/correct with /’s. Here we would have ln(2/ % − 1)% and checking gives
2(2/ % − 1)%
(2/ % − 1)%
It is not possible to scale to get what is inside the integral!
Something first
• split up (1 terms in the denominator)
• divide first using long division (can only use if same highest power in numerator and denominator or higher in numerator)
• factorise first and cancel
• partial fractions (can only use if the highest power is in the denominator). Note: you may also need to factorise first.
• clever re-writing of a fraction
• inverse trig

Trig
1. Is it just a direct result?
/ ,é (-) JKLM ,(-) H-
Method:
Step 1: Look if you can take any numbers (products) outside of the integral

Step 2: Locate for the trig function (the main function) and ignore whatever function is in the numerator
JKLM ,(-)

Step 3: Ask yourself what the trig function swaps to (just like with differentiation). If you know a function differentiates to it then you can integrate it!
• ∫ M )(%) sin M(%) &% = − cos M(%)
• ∫ M )(%) cos M(%) &% = sin M(%)
• ∫ M )(%) sec ; M(%) &% = tan M(%)
• ∫ M )(%) sec M(%) tan M(%) &% = sec M(%)
• ∫ M )(%) cosec M(%) cot M(%) &% = − cosec M(%)
• ∫ M )(%) cosec ; M(%) &% = − cot M(%)

***If you do not have one of these exact 6 functions go to step 2***

Step 4: Differentiate the function from step 3 green to check you get is what is inside the integral. If you do then you’re done. If you
do not then proceed to step 5

Step 5: SCALE/correct your answer in step 4 by a number in order to give you what is inside the integral. In other words, ask yourself
what you need to do to your function to get what is inside the integral?

**Important ** Scale/correct with numbers only (not variables) in order to get what is inside of the integral given. You can only multiply and
divide to scale, not add or subtract. If you want to correct with a variable/ letter it means reverse chain rule/recognition/inspection cannot
be used and you must use parts or substitution which you’ll see in another document.

2. Is it a previous type that happens to have trig in it? (trig with harder power, trig with exponential or trig with !")
Ø Harder power Form ∫ , é(-) ,(-)c H- − remember sinè %(') ≡ (sin %('))è
Ø Exponential Form ∫ , é (-) Q `(h) H-
` T (h)
Ø Natural Logarithm Form ∫ H-
`(h)

3. Is it an identity first
o Easy reciprocal or quadratic identity and then becomes a direct result from 1 or an easy !"
o Is it a harder identity such as double angle
o Is it factor formulae (hint to recognize: Look for a product that isn’t a result or a double angle sin result
where the angles don’t match)

4. Is it parts?

5. Is it a substitution?

Goal: To become on of the 6 basic types: If it is not we need to use an identity (or maybe just substitution or parts) until it becomes one of the 6 easy results

Recognisable by two or more terms in the Hint to recognize: Look for a product that isn’t a result or a
denominator and also where we have the matching double angle sin result where the angles don’t match

what substitution to use, but to be really good at
integration you should only use substitution when
necessary
