4.7 Integrating Trigonometric Functions
4.7.1
Integrals of the form
where m
and n are integers.
1) If m = 2k + 1 is an odd positive integer, then set

Also do this if n is an odd positive integer.
Example 1. ]

2) If m and n are even positive integers, then the integrand (1) is transformed by means of

Example 2.

3) If m = -m and n = -n are negative integers of identical parity, then

In particular, the following integrals reduce to this case:

Example 3.

Example 4.

4) Integrals of the form
![]()
where m is a positive integer, are evaluated using
![]()
Example 5.

In the general case, integrals Im,n are evaluated by means of reduction formulae which, as a rule, are derived by integration by parts.
Example 6.

Find the integrals

1) sin mx cos nx =
˝[sin (m + n)x + sin (m - n)x],
2) sin mx sin nx = ˝[cos(m - n)x
= cos(m + n)x,
3) cos mx cos nx = ˝(cos(m - n)x
+ cos(m+n)x].

4.7.3
Integrals of the form
where R is a rational function.
1) Use
![]()
whence

and such integrals are reduced to integrals of rational functions in the new variable t.
Example 8. Find

Solution: Setting tan x/2 = t, we find

2) If we have the identity
![]()
we can use the substitution tan x = t to give the integral to a rational form.
Here,

Example 9. Find

Solution: Setting

we find

Note that the integral of Example 9. is evaluated faster, if the numerator and denominator of the fraction are first divided by cos˛x.
In individual cases, it is useful to apply artificial procedures (for example, Exercise 1379).

4.8 Integration of Hyperbolic Functions
The integration of hyperbolic functions is completely analogous to that of the of trigonometric functions. The reader should recall the basic formulae:

Example 1. Find
![]()
Solution: We have

Solution: We have


4.9 Trigonometric and
Hyperbolic Substitutions for Integrals
of the Form ![]()
where R is a rational function.
Transforming the quadratic ax˛ + bx + c into a sum or difference of squares, the integral becomes reducible to one of the types of integrals:

which are evaluated using the substitutions:

Example 1. Find

Solution: We have
![]()
Setting x + l = tan z, we have dx = sec˛z and

Example 2. Find
![]()
Solution: We have

Setting

we get

Since

we have finally
