TopicStandard Integrals and Reverse Chain Rule
TypeDefinite integral with logarithmic form
DifficultyModerate -0.3 Part (a) is a straightforward definite integral requiring recognition of standard logarithmic forms (∫1/x dx = ln|x| and ∫1/(ax+b) dx = (1/a)ln|ax+b|), then substituting limits and simplifying to the given answer. Part (b) requires rewriting sin 2x as 2sin x cos x, then recognizing the resulting expression simplifies to a standard form, but this is still routine manipulation. Both parts are standard textbook exercises with no novel insight required, making this slightly easier than average.
