Re: MX2 Integration Marathon

I remember doing this question in a trial paper :p. I'll post a solution tomorrow if nobody has solved it yet. Hint: Use a trig-substitution
Similar to BOS 2012 Paper question

View attachment 30918, nothing too hard, just tedious.

Not sure if i made a mistake there lol, and yeah i know i skipped a lot towards the end.

As for the second part I manipulated the first equation to make it look like the expression in the question and took the summation but i'm not sure what to do there.

(2^(2n+1))/(2n+1)(2nCn)= what you had proven.
Doesnt that work?

Re: MX2 Integration Marathon

here is one from a friend of mine that tests all your MX2 Integration skills
integrate with respect to x
2 ln (1+x/1+x^2)

?

Just split the log and then parts for each term.

sure, it still tests all your skills even if it doesn't cover everything. I'd didn't say it was going to be hard.
(you have to be able to integrate by parts effectively twice, and trigonometry)

From observation (I haven't actually done it yet), the only MX2 technique required is IBP, which is hardly 'all your skills' considering there are perhaps 5-6 other integration techniques in Extension 2.

Re: MX2 Integration Marathon

yeah there should also be a (2n+1)/2^(2n+1) outside and expand the sigma

I don't think yiu can take it outside of sigma since the expression is in terms of n

Re: MX2 Integration Marathon

in your case, it'll be in terms of 'k' [i.e. (2k+1)/2^(2k+1)], since that's what you chose to represent as the index of summation
