Step 1: Recognize that the integral involves a square root expression in the denominator, which suggests a trigonometric substitution. Specifically, observe that the term √(25x² - 1) resembles the form a²x² - b², which is suitable for substitution using x = (1/5)sec(θ).
Step 2: Substitute x = (1/5)sec(θ). This substitution implies dx = (1/5)sec(θ)tan(θ)dθ and √(25x² - 1) becomes √((25/25)sec²(θ) - 1) = √(sec²(θ) - 1) = tan(θ).
Step 3: Rewrite the integral in terms of θ using the substitution. The integral becomes ∫ dθ / (sec(θ)tan(θ) * tan(θ)) = ∫ cos(θ)dθ / tan²(θ).
Step 4: Simplify the integral further using trigonometric identities. Recall that tan²(θ) = sin²(θ)/cos²(θ), so the integral becomes ∫ cos³(θ)dθ / sin²(θ).
Step 5: Adjust the limits of integration. When x = 2/(5√3), substitute into x = (1/5)sec(θ) to find θ = sec⁻¹(2√3/3). Similarly, when x = 2/5, substitute to find θ = sec⁻¹(2). Rewrite the integral with these new limits and proceed to evaluate.

Definite Integrals

A definite integral represents the signed area under a curve between two specified limits. It is denoted as ∫[a, b] f(x) dx, where 'a' and 'b' are the lower and upper limits, respectively. The result of a definite integral is a number that quantifies the accumulation of the function's values over the interval [a, b]. Understanding how to evaluate definite integrals is crucial for solving problems in calculus.

Change of Variables

Change of variables, also known as substitution, is a technique used to simplify the evaluation of integrals. By substituting a new variable for an existing one, the integral can often be transformed into a more manageable form. This method is particularly useful when dealing with complex functions or when the integral involves compositions of functions. Mastery of this technique is essential for effectively solving integrals.
