7–40. Table look-up integrals Use a table of integrals to evaluate the following indefinite integrals. Some of the integrals require preliminary work, such as completing the square or changing variables, before they can be found in a table.

Step 1: Begin by analyzing the denominator of the integrand, sin²(x) + 2sin(x). Notice that this expression can be rewritten by completing the square. Rewrite it as (sin(x) + 1)² - 1.
Step 2: Perform a substitution to simplify the integral. Let u = sin(x) + 1, which implies that du = cos(x) dx. This substitution transforms the integral into ∫ du / (u² - 1).
Step 3: Recognize that the new integral ∫ du / (u² - 1) matches a standard form found in a table of integrals. Specifically, it resembles the integral of 1 / (x² - a²), which has a known solution.
Step 4: Use the table of integrals to find the solution for ∫ du / (u² - 1). The result will involve logarithmic functions, specifically ln|u - 1| and ln|u + 1|.
Step 5: Substitute back u = sin(x) + 1 into the solution obtained from the table to express the final answer in terms of x. Simplify the expression if necessary.

Indefinite Integrals

Indefinite integrals represent a family of functions whose derivative is the integrand. They are expressed without limits and include a constant of integration, typically denoted as 'C'. Understanding how to evaluate indefinite integrals is crucial for solving problems in calculus, as they provide the antiderivative of a function.

Completing the Square

Completing the square is a method used to rewrite quadratic expressions in a specific form, which can simplify integration. This technique involves rearranging a quadratic expression into a perfect square trinomial plus a constant. It is particularly useful when dealing with integrals that contain quadratic terms in the denominator, as it can facilitate easier integration.
