Understanding the Tabular Method in Integration

What is the first step when the tabular method doesn't stop?

• Choose a random U value

• Start with the derivative of e^x

• Directly integrate the function

• Use the LATE rule to find the U value

In the tabular method, what happens when you take the derivative of sin(x)?

• It becomes e^x

• It becomes cos(x)

• It becomes -sin(x)

• It becomes x^2

Why does the tabular method not stop for certain functions?

• Because the function is linear

• Because the derivatives alternate between two functions

• Because the function is already integrated

• Because the function is exponential

What is the trick to solve the problem when the tabular method doesn't stop?

• Use a different integration method

• Add or subtract the repeating term to the other side

• Multiply both sides by two

• Ignore the repeating terms

What do you do after adding the repeating term to the other side in the tabular method?

• Multiply by zero

• Divide both sides by two

• Subtract the original function

• Add a constant
