What is the Integration by Parts method used for?

In summary, we learned about integration by parts and how to apply it to solve integrals. In this specific example, we used the LIATE rule to determine our substitution for $u$ and $dv$, and then integrated by parts twice to simplify the integral to a form that we can easily solve. The final solution is $\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right)^2 }{2}-\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right) }{2}+\frac{{t}^{2}}{4}+ C$.

$\displaystyle
I=\int t
\left(\ln\left({t}\right) \right)^2
\ d{t}
=\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right)^2 }{2}
-\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right) }{2}
+\frac{{t}^{2}}{4}
+ C$
$\displaystyle uv-\int v \ d{u} $

$\begin{align}\displaystyle
u& = t &
dv&=\left(\ln\left({t}\right) \right)^2 \ d{t} \\
du&= dt&
v& =t\left(\ln\left({t}\right)^2 - 2\ln\left({t}\right)+2\right)
\end{align}$
$\text{$v$ reintroduced $t$
so not sure of $u$ $dv$ substitutions } $

According to LIATE, you should first try:

\(\displaystyle u=\ln^2(t)\,\therefore\, du=2\ln(t)\frac{1}{t}\,dt\)

\(\displaystyle dv=t\,dt\,\therefore\,v=\frac{t^2}{2}\)

$\displaystyle
I=\int t
\left(\ln\left({t}\right) \right)^2
\ d{t}
=\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right)^2 }{2}
-\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right) }{2}
+\frac{{t}^{2}}{4}
+ C$
$\displaystyle uv-\int v \ d{u} $

$\begin{align}\displaystyle
u& = \ln^2 \left({t}\right) &
dv&= t \ dt \\
du&=\frac{2\ln\left({t}\right)}{t} \ dt&
v& =\frac{t^2}{2}
\end{align}$
So
$\displaystyle
\frac{{t}^{2}\ln^2 \left({t}\right)}{2}
-\int\frac{t^2}{2} \frac{2\ln\left({t}\right)}{t} \ dt
\implies\frac{{t}^{2}\ln^2 \left({t}\right)}{2}
-\int t \ln\left({t}\right) \ dt $
For
$\displaystyle
\int t \ln\left({t}\right) \ dt $

$\begin{align}\displaystyle
u& = \ln\left({t}\right) &
dv&= t \ dt \\
du&=\frac{1}{t} \ dt&
v& =\frac{t^2}{2}
\end{align}$

$\displaystyle\frac{{t}^{2}\ln\left({t}\right)}{2}
-\int\frac{t}{2} \ dt =\frac{{t}^{2}\ln\left({t}\right)}{2}- \frac{{t}^{2}}{4}$
and finally...
$\displaystyle
\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right)^2 }{2}
-\frac{{t}^{2}\left(\ln\left({t}\right)\right) }{2}
+\frac{{t}^{2}}{4}
+ C$
