 P: 4 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Given integral (I): I[(x)sqrt(9-x^2)dx] by words: Integral of "X" times square root of "9-X(squared) Use proper trigonometric substitution to solve this problem. 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution Attached Thumbnails   Attached Images
 P: 1,757 You don't even need Trig substitution. $$\int x\sqrt{9-x^2}dx$$ $$u=9-x^2$$ $$du=-2xdx \rightarrow xdx=-\frac 1 2 du$$
 P: 4 I know that I don't need that. But the problem is, I have to use it. The exercise require it.

## [SOLVED] Integration with Trigonometric Substitution

Well you posted the solution to it? I don't know what else to tell you. Just analyze what they did. Work it yourself a couple times if you have to.
 P: 420 You forgot a term when you first did the substitution. x = 3sin(u) dx = 3cos(u)du (9 - x^2)^(1/2) = 3cos(u) So the integral becomes 27sin(u)cos^2(u)du
 P: 4 $$\int x^2\sqrt{9-x^2}dx$$ apropo $$u=x^2\sqrt{9-x^2}dx$$
