Integration Problems 99C261
1. **Problem Statement:**
(a) Find the indefinite integral $\int (1 - t)^2 \, dt$.
(b) Evaluate the definite integrals:
(i) $\int_1^3 (x^2 - 4x + 3) \, dx$
(ii) $\int_0^2 3 \sin t \, dt$
(c) Sketch the curves $y = x^2 + 3$ and $y = 7 - 3x$ and find the area enclosed by them using integration.
2. **Formulas and Rules:**
- Indefinite integral: $\int f(x) \, dx = F(x) + C$, where $F'(x) = f(x)$.
- Definite integral: $\int_a^b f(x) \, dx = F(b) - F(a)$.
- Area between curves $y=f(x)$ and $y=g(x)$ from $x=a$ to $x=b$ is $\int_a^b |f(x) - g(x)| \, dx$.

### (a) Indefinite integral $\int (1 - t)^2 \, dt$
1. Expand the integrand:
$$ (1 - t)^2 = 1 - 2t + t^2 $$
2. Integrate term-by-term:
$$ \int (1 - 2t + t^2) \, dt = \int 1 \, dt - 2 \int t \, dt + \int t^2 \, dt $$
3. Use power rule $\int t^n dt = \frac{t^{n+1}}{n+1} + C$:
$$ = t - 2 \cdot \frac{t^2}{2} + \frac{t^3}{3} + C = t - t^2 + \frac{t^3}{3} + C $$

### (b)(i) Evaluate $\int_1^3 (x^2 - 4x + 3) \, dx$
1. Find the antiderivative:
$$ \int (x^2 - 4x + 3) \, dx = \frac{x^3}{3} - 2x^2 + 3x + C $$
2. Evaluate at limits:
$$ F(3) = \frac{3^3}{3} - 2 \cdot 3^2 + 3 \cdot 3 = 9 - 18 + 9 = 0 $$
$$ F(1) = \frac{1^3}{3} - 2 \cdot 1^2 + 3 \cdot 1 = \frac{1}{3} - 2 + 3 = \frac{1}{3} + 1 = \frac{4}{3} $$
3. Compute definite integral:
$$ F(3) - F(1) = 0 - \frac{4}{3} = -\frac{4}{3} $$
---
### (b)(ii) Evaluate $\int_0^2 3 \sin t \, dt$
1. Factor out constant:
$$ 3 \int_0^2 \sin t \, dt $$
2. Antiderivative of $\sin t$ is $-\cos t$:
$$ 3 [-\cos t]_0^2 = 3 (-\cos 2 + \cos 0) $$
3. Calculate values:
$$ \cos 0 = 1, \quad \cos 2 \approx -0.4161 $$
4. Substitute:
$$ 3 ( -(-0.4161) + 1 ) = 3 (0.4161 + 1) = 3 \times 1.4161 = 4.2483 $$

### (c) Area enclosed by $y = x^2 + 3$ and $y = 7 - 3x$
1. Find intersection points by solving:
$$ x^2 + 3 = 7 - 3x $$
$$ x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0 $$
2. Factor or use quadratic formula:
$$ (x + 4)(x - 1) = 0 \implies x = -4, 1 $$
3. The area is:
$$ \int_{-4}^1 \big[(7 - 3x) - (x^2 + 3)\big] \, dx = \int_{-4}^1 (4 - 3x - x^2) \, dx $$
4. Integrate:
$$ \int (4 - 3x - x^2) \, dx = 4x - \frac{3x^2}{2} - \frac{x^3}{3} + C $$
5. Evaluate at limits:
$$ F(1) = 4(1) - \frac{3(1)^2}{2} - \frac{1^3}{3} = 4 - 1.5 - 0.3333 = 2.1667 $$
$$ F(-4) = 4(-4) - \frac{3(-4)^2}{2} - \frac{(-4)^3}{3} = -16 - 24 + \frac{64}{3} = -40 + 21.3333 = -18.6667 $$
6. Area:
$$ F(1) - F(-4) = 2.1667 - (-18.6667) = 20.8334 $$
