1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000 2 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,370 JOEL LEWIS: Hi. 3 00:00:07,370 --> 00:00:08,860 Welcome back to recitation. 4 00:00:08,860 --> 00:00:11,470 You've been doing some work on trig integration. 5 00:00:11,470 --> 00:00:14,150 I have a nice example here of a problem that requires trig 6 00:00:14,150 --> 00:00:15,910 integration in order to solve. 7 00:00:15,910 --> 00:00:19,390 So what I'd like you to do is to compute the volume of the 8 00:00:19,390 --> 00:00:23,790 solid that you get when you take one hump of the curve, y 9 00:00:23,790 --> 00:00:27,390 equals sine ax, and you revolve it around the x-axis. 10 00:00:27,390 --> 00:00:32,400 So you take the curve between two consecutive roots, and 11 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,100 then you, you know, revolve that around the x-axis and 12 00:00:35,100 --> 00:00:37,700 that gives you some, I don't know, vaguely 13 00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:39,580 football-shaped thing. 14 00:00:39,580 --> 00:00:42,000 And so then the question is, what's the 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,150 volume of that solid? 16 00:00:43,150 --> 00:00:46,290 So why don't you pause the video, take a little while to 17 00:00:46,290 --> 00:00:48,570 work that out, come back, and we can work it out together. 18 00:00:48,570 --> 00:00:57,423 19 00:00:57,423 --> 00:00:59,400 Welcome back. 20 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,520 In order to solve this problem, we just are going to 21 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:07,640 apply our usual methods for computing a volume of a solid 22 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:08,550 of rotation. 23 00:01:08,550 --> 00:01:10,570 So in order to do that, remember that one of the 24 00:01:10,570 --> 00:01:14,970 things you need is you need to know the region over which 25 00:01:14,970 --> 00:01:17,180 you're integrating, and you need to choose a method of 26 00:01:17,180 --> 00:01:17,920 integration. 27 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,840 So in this case, looking at this region, here, I'm 28 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,420 rotating it around the x-axis. 29 00:01:26,420 --> 00:01:27,780 i looks to me, so we have two choices. 30 00:01:27,780 --> 00:01:31,780 We could do shells with horizontal rectangles, or we 31 00:01:31,780 --> 00:01:34,320 could do disks with vertical rectangles. 32 00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:36,600 Looks to me like vertical rectangles are going to be the 33 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,770 way to go for this function. 34 00:01:38,770 --> 00:01:42,670 Nice, simple, have their base on the x-axis. 35 00:01:42,670 --> 00:01:46,090 You know, this is a nice setup for disks. 36 00:01:46,090 --> 00:01:48,020 So we're going to take vertical 37 00:01:48,020 --> 00:01:50,570 disks here, like this. 38 00:01:50,570 --> 00:01:53,060 Vertical rectangles that are going to spin 39 00:01:53,060 --> 00:01:54,780 into vertical disks. 40 00:01:54,780 --> 00:01:56,910 And so we're going to integrate all these disks, 41 00:01:56,910 --> 00:02:00,820 we're going to add them up starting at x equals 0, and 42 00:02:00,820 --> 00:02:02,430 going until the end of this region. 43 00:02:02,430 --> 00:02:04,930 So we need to figure out what the end of that region is, so 44 00:02:04,930 --> 00:02:08,900 we need sine ax to be 0, again. 45 00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:15,430 Well, the first 0, the first time sine is 0 after 0 is at 46 00:02:15,430 --> 00:02:18,090 pi, so we need ax to be pi. 47 00:02:18,090 --> 00:02:23,880 So this value is at pi over a. 48 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:24,200 OK. 49 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:29,120 So that's the setup for the problem. 50 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,120 And now we just need to remembe, you know, how to do a 51 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:32,710 problem like this. 52 00:02:32,710 --> 00:02:35,000 So we have each of these disks. 53 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,180 Well, it's height here is the height of the function, which 54 00:02:39,180 --> 00:02:40,630 is y, in this case. 55 00:02:40,630 --> 00:02:45,490 So the area of a little disk-- 56 00:02:45,490 --> 00:02:45,790 sorry. 57 00:02:45,790 --> 00:02:49,351 The area of a disk, the little-- oh, dear. 58 00:02:49,351 --> 00:02:52,570 The element of volume, the little bit of volume that we 59 00:02:52,570 --> 00:02:54,430 get is equal to-- 60 00:02:54,430 --> 00:03:00,390 well, the area of the disk is pi y squared, which is pi sine 61 00:03:00,390 --> 00:03:03,210 squared of ax. 62 00:03:03,210 --> 00:03:07,150 And then the thickness of the disk is a little dx. 63 00:03:07,150 --> 00:03:10,920 So this is our little element dV of volume. 64 00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:13,260 And now to get the whole volume, we just integrate this 65 00:03:13,260 --> 00:03:15,060 over the appropriate range. 66 00:03:15,060 --> 00:03:19,170 So this means V is equal to the integral from 0 to, as we 67 00:03:19,170 --> 00:03:32,510 said, to pi over a of pi times sine squared of ax dx. 68 00:03:32,510 --> 00:03:35,960 So this is just like the sorts of integrals you 69 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,860 were doing in class. 70 00:03:37,860 --> 00:03:38,780 It's a definite integral. 71 00:03:38,780 --> 00:03:40,970 I guess most of the ones you did were just 72 00:03:40,970 --> 00:03:43,400 anti-derivatives, but of course, that's an easy 73 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,580 translation to make by via the fundamental theorem. 74 00:03:47,580 --> 00:03:49,940 So, OK, so we have this ax here. 75 00:03:49,940 --> 00:03:51,300 You know, it's up to you. 76 00:03:51,300 --> 00:03:53,850 I think my life will be simpler if I just make a 77 00:03:53,850 --> 00:03:56,010 little u-substitution, get rid of the ax, and then I don't 78 00:03:56,010 --> 00:03:57,740 have to think about it very much anymore. 79 00:03:57,740 --> 00:04:05,740 So I can take u equals ax, so du equals a dx, or dx 80 00:04:05,740 --> 00:04:08,530 equals 1 over a du. 81 00:04:08,530 --> 00:04:11,410 82 00:04:11,410 --> 00:04:13,430 So I, OK, so I make this quick substitution. 83 00:04:13,430 --> 00:04:17,670 When x is 0, u is also 0. 84 00:04:17,670 --> 00:04:21,280 When x is pi over a, u is just pi. 85 00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:25,260 So this becomes the integral from 0 to pi. 86 00:04:25,260 --> 00:04:26,725 I can pull this pi out front. 87 00:04:26,725 --> 00:04:34,200 And I can pull, so I'm going to get pi times sine squared u 88 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,860 times dx is 1 over a du. 89 00:04:37,860 --> 00:04:42,710 So I'm going to pull the 1 over a out front, as well. 90 00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:45,780 So it's pi over a times the integral from 0 to pi of sine 91 00:04:45,780 --> 00:04:47,200 squared u du. 92 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:47,750 OK. 93 00:04:47,750 --> 00:04:50,010 So now we've just simplified it to the situation where 94 00:04:50,010 --> 00:04:52,800 we've just got a trig integral, no other 95 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,270 complications at all. 96 00:04:54,270 --> 00:04:55,070 How do we do this one? 97 00:04:55,070 --> 00:04:57,960 Well, OK, so this is not one of those nice ones where we 98 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,870 have an odd power for either sine or cosine. 99 00:05:00,870 --> 00:05:04,580 We have sine is appearing to the even power, 2, and cosine, 100 00:05:04,580 --> 00:05:05,550 well, it doesn't appear. 101 00:05:05,550 --> 00:05:07,680 It appears to the even power, 0. 102 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,700 If you like, you could say it that way. 103 00:05:09,700 --> 00:05:12,460 So when we have a situation where sine and cosine both 104 00:05:12,460 --> 00:05:15,420 appear in even powers, what we need to do is we need to use 105 00:05:15,420 --> 00:05:17,020 one of our trig identities. 106 00:05:17,020 --> 00:05:19,790 We need to use a half angle identity. 107 00:05:19,790 --> 00:05:22,632 So the identity in particular that we want to use is we want 108 00:05:22,632 --> 00:05:27,720 to replace sine squared u with something like a 109 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,940 cosine of 2u somehow. 110 00:05:30,940 --> 00:05:33,360 So in order to do that, we need to remember the 111 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,470 appropriate identity. 112 00:05:35,470 --> 00:05:40,990 So one of the double angle identities is cosine of 2t 113 00:05:40,990 --> 00:05:46,940 equals 1 minus 2 sine squared t, which we can rewrite as the 114 00:05:46,940 --> 00:05:54,530 half angle identity, sine squared t equals 1 minus 115 00:05:54,530 --> 00:05:57,510 cosine 2t over 2. 116 00:05:57,510 --> 00:06:00,060 So this is true for any value, t. 117 00:06:00,060 --> 00:06:03,200 In particular, it's true when t is equal to u. 118 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:03,710 Back over here. 119 00:06:03,710 --> 00:06:09,650 So we can rewrite this by replacing sine squared u with 120 00:06:09,650 --> 00:06:14,770 1 minus cosine of 2u divided by 2. 121 00:06:14,770 --> 00:06:18,160 So this integral becomes, so our integral is equal to-- 122 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,090 well, we've still got the pi over a in the front-- 123 00:06:21,090 --> 00:06:34,240 integral from 0 to pi of 1 minus cosine of 2u over 2 du. 124 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:35,880 OK, and so now we integrate it. 125 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,920 So 1 over 2, that's easy. 126 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:43,050 That's just so, OK, so the pi over a is still out in front. 127 00:06:43,050 --> 00:06:47,340 1 over 2 integrates, just gives us u over 2. 128 00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:51,020 How about cosine of 2u? 129 00:06:51,020 --> 00:06:54,680 Well, so minus cosine of 2u, so that should 130 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:55,860 give us a minus sine. 131 00:06:55,860 --> 00:06:56,700 Right? 132 00:06:56,700 --> 00:06:59,900 Derivative of sine is cosine, derivative of minus sine is 133 00:06:59,900 --> 00:07:01,000 minus cosine. 134 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:07,570 So its minus sine of 2u, and then because it's 2u, we're 135 00:07:07,570 --> 00:07:10,330 going to have to divide by 2 again. 136 00:07:10,330 --> 00:07:12,810 So over 4. 137 00:07:12,810 --> 00:07:16,240 138 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:16,840 All right. 139 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,560 If you don't believe me, of course, you could always check 140 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,300 by differentiating this expression and making sure 141 00:07:21,300 --> 00:07:24,120 that it matches that expression, 142 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,650 the integrand, here. 143 00:07:25,650 --> 00:07:29,680 And OK, and so we need to take that between u equals 0 144 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,050 and u equals pi. 145 00:07:31,050 --> 00:07:32,840 So luckily we changed our bounds of integration and we 146 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,950 don't have to go all the way back to x again. 147 00:07:36,950 --> 00:07:44,545 OK, so this is pi over a times-- 148 00:07:44,545 --> 00:07:54,310 OK, so u over 2 minus sine, 2u over 4 when u is pi over 2 149 00:07:54,310 --> 00:07:57,200 minus sine of 2 pi. 150 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,990 That's just 0, right? 151 00:07:59,990 --> 00:08:01,840 Yes, that's just 0. 152 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:02,050 Good. 153 00:08:02,050 --> 00:08:03,440 So this term is just 0. 154 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,200 pi over 2 minus-- 155 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,300 OK, now when we put in 0, here, well, we get 0 minus 156 00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:13,850 sine of 0, so that's just 0-- so just pi over 2. 157 00:08:13,850 --> 00:08:14,130 OK. 158 00:08:14,130 --> 00:08:20,380 So the answer, then, is pi squared over 2a. 159 00:08:20,380 --> 00:08:22,440 So that's the volume we were looking for. 160 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:29,950 So just to quickly recap, we have our solid of revolution 161 00:08:29,950 --> 00:08:34,180 here that we get by spinning this region around the x-axis. 162 00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:37,820 We use our typical methods for computing volumes of solids of 163 00:08:37,820 --> 00:08:40,300 revolution. 164 00:08:40,300 --> 00:08:43,480 We've go a, when we do that, the integral that we set up is 165 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,670 a trig integral with a sine squared in it. 166 00:08:45,670 --> 00:08:48,290 So both sine and cosine appear to an even power 167 00:08:48,290 --> 00:08:49,610 in this trig integral. 168 00:08:49,610 --> 00:08:52,230 When you're in that situation, you're going to have to use 169 00:08:52,230 --> 00:08:54,550 your half angle formulas, like so. 170 00:08:54,550 --> 00:08:56,310 Once you do that, you'll simplify. 171 00:08:56,310 --> 00:08:59,330 Sometimes life is hard, you'll have to do it more than once. 172 00:08:59,330 --> 00:09:02,370 In this case, we only had to do that once, so we got, then 173 00:09:02,370 --> 00:09:08,200 we, that reduces the integral to something that's easy to 174 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,630 compute, where you have one of sine or cosine always 175 00:09:11,630 --> 00:09:13,040 appearing to an odd power. 176 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,350 In this case, very simple. 177 00:09:15,350 --> 00:09:17,060 You just had a cosine. 178 00:09:17,060 --> 00:09:21,240 And then you integrate it, and this was our final answer. 179 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,910 I'll end there. 180 00:09:22,910 --> 00:09:22,963
