| Topic | Standard Integrals and Reverse Chain Rule |
| Type | Use trig identity before definite integration |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 Part (a) is a straightforward application of the standard integral of 1/x with a constant factor. Part (b) requires using the double angle identity cos(2θ) = 1 - 2sin²(θ) to rewrite sin²(3x/2) before integrating, then applying reverse chain rule - this is a standard technique taught in P2 but requires one extra step beyond routine integration. |
