Evaluate the integral:

Key points to solve the problem:


• Such problems require the use of method of substitution along with method of integration by parts. By method of integration by parts if we have


• To solve the integrals of the form: after applying substitution and integration by parts we have direct formulae as described below:





Let, I =


Let, x3 = t


Differentiating both sides:


3x2 dx = dt


x2 dx = 1/3 dt


Substituting x3 with t, we have:


I =


As I match with the form:


I =


Putting the value of t i.e. t = x3


I =
