Sec 7.5: STRATEGY FOR INTEGRATION
integration is more challenging than differentiation.
No hard and fast rules can be given as to which
method applies in a given situation, but we give
some advice on strategy that you may find useful.
how to attack a given integral, you might try
the following four-step strategy.
Sec 7.5: STRATEGY FOR INTEGRATION
4-step strategy
1
Simplify the Integrand if Possible
2
Look for an Obvious Substitution
function and its derivative
3
Classify the Integrand According to Its Form
Trig fns, rational fns, by parts, radicals, rational in sine & cos,
4
Try Again
1)Try subsitution 2)Try parts 3)Manipulate integrand
4)Relate to previous Problems 5)Use several methods

This means that no matter how hard we try, we will never succeed in
evaluating in terms of the functions we know.
In fact, the majority of elementary functions
don’t have elementary antiderivatives.
