Integral
dx
[tex]\int \log{\left (\sqrt{x} \right )}\, dx = x \log{\left (\sqrt{x} \right )} - \frac{x}{2} + \mathrm{const}[/tex]

Integral Steps:

  1. There are multiple ways to do this integral.

    Method #1

    1. Let [tex]u = \sqrt{x}[/tex].

      Then let [tex]du = \frac{dx}{2 \sqrt{x}}[/tex] and substitute [tex]2 du[/tex]:

      [tex]\int 2 u \log{\left (u \right )}\, du[/tex]

      1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

        [tex]\int u \log{\left (u \right )}\, du = 2 \int u \log{\left (u \right )}\, du[/tex]

        1. Use integration by parts:

          Let [tex]u{\left (u \right )} = \log{\left (u \right )}[/tex] and let [tex]\operatorname{dv}{\left (u \right )} = u[/tex].

          Then [tex]\operatorname{du}{\left (u \right )} = \frac{1}{u}[/tex].

          To find [tex]v{\left (u \right )}[/tex]:

          1. The integral of [tex]u^{n}[/tex] is [tex]\frac{u^{n + 1}}{n + 1}[/tex] when [tex]n \neq -1[/tex]:

            [tex]\int u\, du = \frac{u^{2}}{2}[/tex]

          Now evaluate the sub-integral.

        2. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

          [tex]\int \frac{u}{2}\, du = \frac{1}{2} \int u\, du[/tex]

          1. The integral of [tex]u^{n}[/tex] is [tex]\frac{u^{n + 1}}{n + 1}[/tex] when [tex]n \neq -1[/tex]:

            [tex]\int u\, du = \frac{u^{2}}{2}[/tex]

          So, the result is: [tex]\frac{u^{2}}{4}[/tex]

        So, the result is: [tex]u^{2} \log{\left (u \right )} - \frac{u^{2}}{2}[/tex]

      Now substitute [tex]u[/tex] back in:

      [tex]x \log{\left (\sqrt{x} \right )} - \frac{x}{2}[/tex]

    Method #2

    1. Use integration by parts:

      Let [tex]u{\left (x \right )} = \log{\left (\sqrt{x} \right )}[/tex] and let [tex]\operatorname{dv}{\left (x \right )} = 1[/tex].

      Then [tex]\operatorname{du}{\left (x \right )} = \frac{1}{2 x}[/tex].

      To find [tex]v{\left (x \right )}[/tex]:

      1. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:

        [tex]\int 1\, dx = x[/tex]

      Now evaluate the sub-integral.

    2. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:

      [tex]\int \frac{1}{2}\, dx = \frac{x}{2}[/tex]

  2. Add the constant of integration:

    [tex]x \log{\left (\sqrt{x} \right )} - \frac{x}{2}+ \mathrm{constant}[/tex]


The answer is:

[tex]x \log{\left (\sqrt{x} \right )} - \frac{x}{2}+ \mathrm{constant}[/tex]

Trigonometric Substitutions

$\sqrt{a^2 - b^2x^2}$ $\Rightarrow x=\frac{a}{b}\sin\theta$ and $\cos^2\theta = 1 - \sin^2\theta$

$\sqrt{a^2 + b^2x^2}$ $\Rightarrow x=\frac{a}{b}\tan\theta$ and $\sec^2\theta = 1 + \tan^2\theta$

$\sqrt{b^2x^2 - a^2}$ $\Rightarrow x=\frac{a}{b}\sec\theta$ and $\tan^2\theta = \sec^2\theta - 1$
