009B Sample Final 1, Problem 2

We would like to evaluate

${\frac {d}{dx}}{\bigg (}\int _{-1}^{x}\sin(t^{2})2tdt{\bigg )}$.

a) Compute $f(x)=\int _{-1}^{x}\sin(t^{2})2t~dt$.

b) Find $f'(x)$.

c) State the fundamental theorem of calculus.

d) Use the fundamental theorem of calculus to compute ${\frac {d}{dx}}{\bigg (}\int _{-1}^{x}\sin(t^{2})2t~dt{\bigg )}$ without first computing the integral.

Foundations:
How would you integrate $\int e^{x^{2}}2x~dx$?
You could use $u$-substitution. Let $u=x^{2}$. Then, $du=2xdx$.
So, we get $\int e^{u}~du=e^{u}+C=e^{x^{2}}+C$.

Solution:

(a)

Step 1:
We proceed using $u$-substitution. Let $u=t^{2}$. Then, $du=2tdt$.
Since this is a definite integral, we need to change the bounds of integration.
Plugging in our values into the equation $u=t^{2}$, we get $u_{1}=(-1)^{2}=1$ and $u_{2}=x^{2}$.

Step 2:
So, we have
${\begin{array}{rcl}f(x)&=&\displaystyle {\int _{-1}^{x}\sin(t^{2})2t~dt}\\&&\\&=&\displaystyle {\int _{1}^{x^{2}}\sin(u)~du}\\&&\\&=&\displaystyle {-\cos(u){\bigg |}_{1}^{x^{2}}}\\&&\\&=&\displaystyle {-\cos(x^{2})+\cos(1)}\\\end{array}}$

(b)

Step 1:
From part (a), we have $f(x)=-\cos(x^{2})+\cos(1)$.

Step 2:
If we take the derivative, we get $f'(x)=\sin(x^{2})2x$.

(c)
