NameDate

Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

  1. Ari looks at ∫ 2x(x² + 1)⁵ dx before starting. Which method fits it best?

    • the power rule on 2x and (x² + 1)⁵ separately
    • long division of 2x by x² + 1
    • the arctan rule on x² + 1
    • substitution with u = x² + 1
  2. Bo looks at ∫ 1/(x² + 25) dx before starting. Which method fits it best?

    • the power rule on (x² + 25)⁻¹
    • long division of 1 by x² + 25
    • the arctan rule with a = 5
    • substitution with u = x² + 25
  3. Esme looks at ∫ (x² + 1)/x dx before starting. Which method fits it best?

    • the power rule on x² + 1, then divide by x
    • the arctan rule on x² + 1
    • divide first, into x + 1/x
    • substitution with u = x² + 1
  4. Jun looks at ∫ 3x² − 4x + 7 dx before starting. Which method fits it best?

    • the arctan rule on 3x² − 4x + 7
    • divide 3x² − 4x + 7 by x first
    • substitution with u = 3x² − 4x + 7
    • the power rule, term by term
  5. Kira uses the power rule to evaluate ∫ from 1 to 3 of (3x² + 2) dx. What is it?

  6. Milo uses the power rule to evaluate ∫ from −1 to 1 of (9x² + 4) dx. What is it?

  7. Noah uses the power rule to evaluate ∫ from 2 to 3 of (12x² + 5) dx. What is it?

  8. Pia sets u = x² + 1 to evaluate ∫ from 0 to 1 of 2x(x² + 1)² dx, changing the limits too. What is it?

  9. Ren sets u = x² + 1 to evaluate ∫ from 0 to 2 of 2x(x² + 1)² dx, changing the limits too. What is it?

  10. Zee sets u = x² + 3 to evaluate ∫ from 0 to 1 of 2x(x² + 3)² dx, changing the limits too. What is it?

About this worksheet

Choosing an integration method. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can say which method an integral needs from its shape.
  • I can evaluate definite integrals by the power rule, substitution, exponentials and trig.
  • I can split a fraction and choose ln or arctan for each piece.

Standard: none (beyond CCSS)

Words to know

strategy: Read the shape, then pick the rule.

change of limits: In a definite substitution, the limits become u-values.

split: Write one fraction as a sum of simpler fractions.

Common mistakes

Chose substitution where the inside's derivative is not a factor.

Chose the arctan rule for a shape that is not a number over x² + a².

Chose long division where the top's power is lower than the bottom's, or there is no fraction.

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with choose an integration method?

Chose substitution where the inside's derivative is not a factor.
