I can't remember a fallacious proof involving integrals and trigonometric identities.?

My calc professor once taught us a fallacious proof. I'm hoping someone here can help me remember it. Here's what I know about it: - The end result was some variation of 0=1 or 1=2. - It... more

Question regarding integral of ln(2x+1) dx

∫ln(2x+1) dx; when I solve for this using u-sub with u = 2x+1, I get 1/2((2x+1)ln(2x+1) - (2x+1)) + C. However, when I solve for it using integration by parts, I get 1/2((2x+1)ln(2x+1)) - x + C.... more

Differential Equations.

I've been trying to solve this problem for hours.   Find the solution of the differential equation (ln(y))^4  dy/dx=x^4*y which satisfies the initial condition y(1)=e^2 y=?

Differential Equation Question

How would I write this in matrix form (x' = AX)    x' = x y' = y   Note: Is it supposed to be like this: x' = (1 v 1)(x v y) or x' = (1 + 0 v 1 + 0)(x v y)? Note: the "v" means the value after... more

Is Sin^-1 (x) = - Cos^-1 (x)

In integration, it is given as:   Integration of 1/(1-x^2)^(1/2) = sin^-1 (x)   and   Integration of 1/(1-x^2)^(1/2) = - cos^-1 (x)   Does this imply both are equal?
