Integration by Parts

• Method of Substitution– Related to the chain rule

• Integration by Parts– Related to the product rule– More complex to implement than the Method

of Substitution

Integration by Parts Formula

• What good does it do us?– We can trade one integral for another.– This is only helpful if the integral we start with

is difficult and we can trade it for a good (i.e., solvable) one.

Helpful Hints

• For u, choose a function whose derivative is “nicer”.– LIATE

• dv must include everything else (including dx).
