True or False?
Partial fractions can be used for integration when the denominator of a quotient is of quadratic form.
E.g. to integrate .
True.
Partial fractions can be used for integration when the denominator of a quotient is of quadratic form.
E.g. to integrate , first use partial fractions to rewrite the integral as .
Why should you not use partial fractions to integrate something like ?
If the numerator of what you are trying to integrate is the derivative (or a multiple of the derivative) of the denominator, then partial fractions should not be used because it is much quicker to use the reverse chain rule result .
E.g.
True or False?
If a quadratic denominator does not factorise, then you should use inverse trigonometric functions to integrate.
True.
If a quadratic denominator does not factorise, then you should use inverse trigonometric functions to integrate.
True or False?
The result of integrating with partial fractions always involves natural logarithms.
True.
The result of integrating with partial fractions always involves natural logarithms.

Substitute into the answer:
Use laws of logarithms to combine the two logs:
What is the area between a curve and the y-axis?
The area between a curve and the y-axis is the region bounded by the graph of y=f(x), the y-axis, and two horizontal lines y=a and y=b.
What is the formula for finding the area between a curve and the y-axis?
The formula for finding the area between a curve and the y-axis is

True.
The function y=f(x) describing the curve must be rearranged into the form x=g(y) when finding the area between a curve and the y-axis.
What is a volume of revolution?
A volume of revolution is the volume of a solid formed when an area bounded by a function y=f(x) is rotated 2π radians (or 360°) around an axis.
State the formula for a volume of revolution around the x-axis.

The constant π in the volume of revolution formulas can be pulled out in front of the integral as a multiplier.
True.
The constant π in the volume of revolution formulas (like any constant inside an integral) can be pulled out in front of the integral as a multiplier.
This can be useful when the integral needs to be evaluated by hand. (Just don't forget to put π back into the final answer at the end!)
What is a key modelling assumption when using volumes of revolution?
A key modelling assumption when using volumes of revolution is that the thickness of the 'walls' of the solid is negligible relative to the size of the object.
True or False?
The volume of revolution always includes all parts of an object, such as the handle of a bucket.
False.
The volume of revolution does not always include all parts of an object, such as the handle of a bucket.
The volume of revolution usually only includes the main shape of the body of the object, not additional parts like the handle of a bucket.

True or False?
The volume found by a volume of revolution model always accurately represents the capacity of the real object.
False.
The volume found by a volume of revolution model may not always accurately represents the capacity of the real object, due to various factors like material thickness or internal components.
