Key Concepts and Formulas

  • Integration by parts: udv=uvvdu\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du
  • Trigonometric substitution and identities: Using substitutions like x=t2x = t^2 to simplify integrals.
  • 11+xdx=tan1(x)+C\int \frac{1}{1+x} dx = \tan^{-1}(x) + C

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1: Simplify the integrand using trigonometric substitution. We are given the integral I=sin1(x1+x)dxI = \int \sin^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{x}{1+x}}\right) dx. Let θ=sin1(x1+x)\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{x}{1+x}}\right). Then, sinθ=x1+x\sin \theta = \sqrt{\frac{x}{1+x}}. We want to express θ\theta in a simpler form, likely involving tan1\tan^{-1}.

Step 2: Express sinθ\sin \theta in terms of tanθ\tan \theta. Since sinθ=x1+x\sin \theta = \sqrt{\frac{x}{1+x}}, we can construct a right-angled triangle where the opposite side is x\sqrt{x} and the hypotenuse is 1+x\sqrt{1+x}. Then, the adjacent side is (1+x)x=1=1\sqrt{(1+x) - x} = \sqrt{1} = 1. Thus, tanθ=x1=x\tan \theta = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{1} = \sqrt{x}. Therefore, θ=tan1(x)\theta = \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}).

Step 3: Rewrite the integral. Now, we have I=tan1(x)dxI = \int \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) \, dx.

Step 4: Apply integration by parts. Let u=tan1(x)u = \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) and dv=dxdv = dx. Then, du=11+(x)212xdx=12x(1+x)dxdu = \frac{1}{1 + (\sqrt{x})^2} \cdot \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} \, dx = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}(1+x)} \, dx and v=xv = x. Using integration by parts, I=xtan1(x)x12x(1+x)dx=xtan1(x)12xx(1+x)dx=xtan1(x)12x1+xdxI = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \int x \cdot \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}(1+x)} \, dx = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{x}{\sqrt{x}(1+x)} \, dx = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{\sqrt{x}}{1+x} \, dx

Step 5: Use substitution to solve the remaining integral. Let t=xt = \sqrt{x}. Then, x=t2x = t^2 and dx=2tdtdx = 2t \, dt. I=xtan1(x)12t1+t2(2tdt)=xtan1(x)t21+t2dtI = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{t}{1+t^2} (2t \, dt) = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \int \frac{t^2}{1+t^2} \, dt

Step 6: Simplify the integral. I=xtan1(x)t2+111+t2dt=xtan1(x)(111+t2)dt=xtan1(x)1dt+11+t2dtI = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \int \frac{t^2 + 1 - 1}{1+t^2} \, dt = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \int \left(1 - \frac{1}{1+t^2}\right) \, dt = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \int 1 \, dt + \int \frac{1}{1+t^2} \, dt I=xtan1(x)t+tan1(t)+CI = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - t + \tan^{-1}(t) + C

Step 7: Substitute back for tt and xx. Substitute t=xt = \sqrt{x} back into the equation: I=xtan1(x)x+tan1(x)+C=(x+1)tan1(x)x+CI = x \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \sqrt{x} + \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) + C = (x+1) \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \sqrt{x} + C

Step 8: Identify A(x) and B(x). Comparing this with the given form A(x)tan1(x)+B(x)+CA(x) \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) + B(x) + C, we have A(x)=x+1A(x) = x+1 and B(x)=xB(x) = -\sqrt{x}.

Step 9: State the ordered pair (A(x), B(x)). Thus, the ordered pair (A(x),B(x))(A(x), B(x)) is (x+1,x)(x+1, -\sqrt{x}).

Common Mistakes & Tips

  • Incorrect Substitution: Choosing the wrong substitution can complicate the integral.
  • Forgetting the Constant of Integration: Always remember to add "+ C" to indefinite integrals.
  • Algebra Errors: Be careful when simplifying the integral after applying integration by parts.

Summary

We simplified the integral by using trigonometric substitution and integration by parts. We first rewrote the integrand using θ=tan1(x)\theta = \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}). Then, we applied integration by parts, followed by another substitution to obtain the final result: (x+1)tan1(x)x+C(x+1) \tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}) - \sqrt{x} + C. Comparing this with the given form, we identified A(x)=x+1A(x) = x+1 and B(x)=xB(x) = -\sqrt{x}.

Final Answer The final answer is \boxed{(x + 1, -{\sqrt x })}, which corresponds to option (A).
