Integration by parts is a technique used to find the integral of a product of two functions. It involves using the formula ∫u dv = uv - ∫v du, where u and v are chosen functions.
Integration by parts is like peeling an onion. You start with a whole onion (the original function) and peel off one layer at a time (integrating one part while differentiating the other), until you reach the core (the final integral).
Partial Fractions: A method used to decompose a rational function into simpler fractions. It is often used in integration problems involving fractions.
Chain Rule: A rule in calculus that allows you to differentiate composite functions. It is the reverse process of integration by parts.
Tabular Integration: A systematic method for integrating products of functions repeatedly using a table. It can be helpful when integration by parts needs to be applied multiple times.
