  • ∫ dx/(ax+b)=1/a □ln ln (ax+b) +c
  • ∫ e^(ax+b) dx=1/a e^(ax+b)+c
  • ∫ a^(px+q) dx=1/P a^(px+q)/(□ln ln a )+c , Here a>0
  • ∫ sin (ax+b)dx =-1/a □cos cos (ax+b) +c
  • ∫ sin (ax+b)dx =-1/a □cos cos (ax+b) +c
  • ∫ tan (ax+b)dx =1/a □ln ln □sec sec (ax+b) +c
  • ∫ cot (ax+b)dx =1/a □ln ln □sin sin (ax+b) +c

Here we put tan x =t

∫ dx/(a+b□sin sin x ) or∫ dx/(a+b□cos cos x ) or∫ dx/(a+b□sin sin x +c□cos cos x )

Here we put tan x/2 =t

Integration of type∫ (x^2+1)/(x^4+Kx^2+1) dx

Here k is any constant

So, we divide numerator and denominator by x^2 and put x∓1/x=t

Application Of Derivatives formula

The formula for application of derivatives are as stated below

DescriptionFormula
Equation of tangent and normal
  • Tangent at(x_1,y_1) is given by(y-y_1 )=f^’ (x_1 )(x-x_1 ), here the f'(x_1) should be real
  • And normal at(x_1,y_1) is given by(y-y_1 )=-1/(f^’ (x_1 ) )(x-x_1), here the f^’ (x_1 ) should be non-zero and real.
Tangent from an external point

Given a point P(a, b) which does not lie on the curve y = f(x), then the equation of possible tangents to the curve y = f(x), passing through (a, b) can be found by solving for the point of contact Q.

f^’ (h)=(f(h)-b)/(h-a)

And equation of the tangent is

y-b=(f(h)-b)/(h-a) (x-a)
Length of tangent, normal, subtangent, subnormal
  • PT=|k| √(1+1/m^2 ) is the length of the tangent
  • PN=|k| √(1+m^2 )  is the length of normal
  • TM=|k/m| is the length of the subtangent
  • MN=|km| is the length of subnormal
Angle between the curves

Angle between two intersecting curves is defined as the acute angle between their tangents (or normal) at the point of intersection of two curves. So,

□tan tan θ =|(m_1-m_2)/(1+m_1 m_2 )|
Rolle’s Theorem:

If a function f defined on [a, b] is

  • continuous on [a, b]
  • derivable on (a, b) and
  • f(a) = f(b),
  • then there exists at least one real number c between a and b

(a < c < b) such that f’(c) = 0

Lagrange’s Mean Value Theorem (LMVT):

If a function f defined on [a, b] is

(i) Continuous on [a, b] and  (ii) derivable on (a, b)

then there exists at least one real numbers between a and b (a < c < b) such that

(f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)=f'(c)
