Integration by parts
Integration by parts is a method for
integrating the product of two functions
f(x)
and
g(x).
First find
G(x)
so that
G'(x) = g(x).
Then apply the
formula
The functions f and g are the two parts. The part f is differentiated, the part g is integrated.
Sometimes the formula is written
where u = f(x) and v = G(x), so du = f'(x) dx and dv = g(x) dx.
