∫ [y / √(16 − y²)] dy

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the integral to solve: \(\int \frac{y}{\sqrt{16 - y^{2}}} \, dy\).
Recognize that the integrand contains a square root of the form \(\sqrt{a^{2} - y^{2}}\), which suggests using the trigonometric substitution \(y = a \sin(\theta)\), where \(a = 4\) in this case.
Make the substitution \(y = 4 \sin(\theta)\), then compute \(dy = 4 \cos(\theta) \, d\theta\). Also, rewrite the square root: \(\sqrt{16 - y^{2}} = \sqrt{16 - 16 \sin^{2}(\theta)} = 4 \cos(\theta)\).
Substitute all parts into the integral: replace \(y\), \(dy\), and the square root to express the integral entirely in terms of \(\theta\). The integral becomes \(\int \frac{4 \sin(\theta)}{4 \cos(\theta)} \times 4 \cos(\theta) \, d\theta\).
Simplify the integral expression and then integrate with respect to \(\theta\). After integration, use the inverse substitution \(\theta = \arcsin\left(\frac{y}{4}\right)\) to rewrite the answer in terms of \(y\).

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Trigonometric Substitution

Trigonometric substitution is a technique used to simplify integrals involving square roots of quadratic expressions by substituting a trigonometric function for the variable. For expressions like √(a² − x²), substituting x = a sin(θ) transforms the integral into a trigonometric form that is easier to evaluate.

Integration of Trigonometric Functions

After substitution, the integral often involves trigonometric functions such as sine and cosine. Understanding how to integrate these functions, including using identities and basic integral formulas, is essential to solve the integral and then revert back to the original variable.

Back-Substitution

Once the integral is evaluated in terms of the trigonometric variable, back-substitution is used to rewrite the answer in terms of the original variable. This involves using the inverse trigonometric functions or right triangle relationships derived from the substitution.
