Convert Trigonometric Substitution

Choose the substitution that matches the radical form, then rewrite dx and simplify using trigonometric identities.

Formula: For √(a²−x²): x=a sinθ; for √(a²+x²): x=a tanθ; for √(x²−a²): x=a secθ

Enter the expression exactly as intended and pay attention to the variable, interval, and any domain restrictions. These details can change the mathematical result.

For a manual check, differentiate an antiderivative, substitute a point, or compare a simple case with the defining equation.

Frequently Asked Questions FAQ

What does the Trigonometric Substitution Calculator calculate?
The Trigonometric Substitution Calculator solves the mathematical calculation described by the tool and returns the result using the values entered in the calculator.
