Find the value of the integral ∫ex(cosecx)(1−cotx)dx.
A. ex(cotx)+c B. ex(cosecx)(cotx)+c C. ex(cosecx)+c D. −ex(cotx)+c
Solution
Hint- Here, we will proceed by using the concept of integration by parts to solve the integral ∫[ex(cosecx)(cotx)]dx separately and then using the formula ∫(cosecx)(cotx)dx=−cosecx to simplify the given integral whose value is required.
Complete step by step answer:
Let us then suppose the given integral be
According to the formula of integration by parts (ILATE), the integral consisting of two different functions in variable x can be evaluated as under
\int {{\text{f}}\left( x \right)g\left( x \right)} dx = {\text{f}}\left( x \right)\left[ {\int {g\left( x \right)} dx} \right] - \int {\left\\{ {\left[ {\dfrac{d}{{dx}}\left[ {{\text{f}}\left( x \right)} \right]} \right]\int {g\left( x \right)dx} } \right\\}} dx + c{\text{ }} \to {\text{(2)}} where c is any constant of integration
where the functions f(x) and g(x) are arranged based on the priority basis according to ILATE
Considering the integral ∫[ex(cosecx)(cotx)]dx in equation (1) where the first function is f(x)=ex and the second function is g(x)=(cosecx)(cotx) and then solving it using the formula given by equation (2), we get
\Rightarrow \int {{e^x}\left[ {\left( {{\text{cosecx}}} \right)\left( {\cot x} \right)} \right]} dx = {e^x}\left[ {\int {\left( {{\text{cosecx}}} \right)\left( {\cot x} \right)} dx} \right] - \int {\left\\{ {\left[ {\dfrac{d}{{dx}}\left( {{e^x}} \right)} \right]\left[ {\int {\left( {{\text{cosecx}}} \right)\left( {\cot x} \right)} dx} \right]} \right\\}} dx + c
Using the formula ∫(cosecx)(cotx)dx=−cosecx, the above integral becomes
By substituting equation (3) in equation (1), we get
⇒I=∫[ex(cosecx)]dx−[−ex(cosecx)+∫[ex(cosecx)]dx]+c ⇒I=∫[ex(cosecx)]dx+ex(cosecx)−∫[ex(cosecx)]dx+c ⇒I=ex(cosecx)+cTherefore, the integral ∫ex(cosecx)(1−cotx)dx=ex(cosecx)+c
Hence, option C is correct.
Note- In the method of integration by parts (ILATE), I refers to inverse trigonometric function, L refers to logarithmic function, A refers to algebraic function, T refers to trigonometric function and E refers to exponential function. In this problem, the first function is taken as ex and the second function as (cosecx)(cotx) so that the required integral can be solved conveniently.
