Evaluate the following integral:

Question: Evaluate the following integral: $\int \frac{\sin 2 x}{(1+\sin x)(2+\sin x)} d x$ Solution: The denominator is factorized, so let separate the fraction through partial fraction, hence let $\frac{\sin 2 x}{(1+\sin x)(2+\sin x)}=\frac{A}{(1+\sin x)}+\frac{B}{2+\sin x} \ldots \ldots$ (i) $\Rightarrow \frac{\sin 2 x}{(1+\sin x)(2+\sin x)}=\frac{A(2+\sin x)+B(1+\sin x)}{(1+\sin x)(2+\sin x)}$ $\Rightarrow \sin 2 x=A(2+\sin x)+B(1+\sin x)=2 A+A \sin x+B+B \sin x$ $\Rightarrow 2 \sin x \cos x...

Define * on Z by a * b = a – b + ab

Question: Define $*$ on $Z$ by $a * b=a-b+a b$. Show that $*$ is a binary operation on $Z$ which is neither commutative nor associative. Solution: * is an operation as $a * b=a-b+a b$ where $a, b \in Z$. Let $a=\frac{1}{2}$ and $b=2$ two integers. $\mathrm{a} * \mathrm{~b}=\frac{1}{2} * 2=\frac{1}{2}-2+\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \Rightarrow \frac{1-4}{2}+1=\frac{-3+2}{2} \Rightarrow \frac{-1}{2} \in \mathrm{Z}$ So, $*$ is a binary operation from $Z \times Z \rightarrow Z$. For commutative, $\mathrm{b}^...

Define * on N by m * n = 1 cm (m, n).

Question: Define $*$ on $\mathrm{N}$ by $\mathrm{m} * \mathrm{n}=1 \mathrm{~cm}(\mathrm{~m}, \mathrm{n})$. Show that $*$ is a binary operation which is commutative as well as associative. Solution: $*$ is an operation as $m * n=\operatorname{LCM}(m, n)$ where $m, n \in N$. Let $m=2$ and $b=3$ two natural numbers. m*n = 2*3 $=\operatorname{LCM}(2,3)$ $=6 \in \mathrm{N}$ So, $*$ is a binary operation from $\mathrm{N} \times \mathrm{N} \rightarrow \mathrm{N}$. For commutative, $\mathrm{n} * \mathrm...

Question: Evaluate the following integral: $\int \frac{2 x-3}{\left(x^{2}-1\right)(2 x+3)} d x$ Solution: $\frac{2 x-3}{\left(x^{2}-1\right)(2 x+3)}=\frac{2 x-3}{(x-1)(x+1)(2 x+3)}$ The denominator is factorized, so let separate the fraction through partial fraction, hence let $\frac{2 x-3}{(x-1)(x+1)(2 x+3)}=\frac{A}{(x-1)}+\frac{B}{x+1}+\frac{C}{2 x+3} \ldots \ldots$ (i) $\Rightarrow \frac{2 x-3}{(x-1)(x+1)(2 x+3)}$ $=\frac{A(x+1)(2 x+3)+B(x-1)(2 x+3)+C(x-1)(x+1)}{(x-1)(x+1)(2 x+3)}$ $\Rightar...

Question: For all $a, b \in R$, we define $a^{*} b=|a-b|$. Show that $*$ is commutative but not associative. Solution: a*b = a - b if ab = - (a - b) if ba b*a = a - b if ab = - (a - b) if ba So a*b = b*a So * is commutative To show that * is associative we need to show $(a * b) * c=a *(b * c)$ Or ||$a-b|-c|=|a-| b-c||$ Let us consider cab Eg a = 1,b = - 1,c = 5 LHS: $|a-b|=|1+1|=2$ ||$a-b|-c|=|2-5|=3$ RHS $|b-c|=|-1-5|=6$ $|a-| b-c||=|1-6|=|-5|=5$ As LHS is not equal to RHS * is not associative...
