  • The MIT Integration Bee is one of the oldest and most sacred traditions at one of the top STEM institutions in the world. Today, we try to tackle 5 of the most challenging problems from the 2006 MIT Integration Bee. I hope you enjoy!
    Here's the link to the original video, as promised: • MIT 2006 Integration Bee

    Let's graph f(x). As you can see, its just a triangle. Yeah, of course i see :D

    For integral 2 you can also do the substitution
    x = pi/2 -u, it becomes
    1 +cosu = 2(cos(u/2))^2
    Then we have integral of secant squared which is doable since its equal to tangent

    for the second question we dont need to substitute we can just do sinx/ cos^2x = sec x . tan x and then integrate so the answer will be sec x which is the same as 1/ cos x

    Recently it was published a book about MIT integration bee, under the title " MIT Integration Bee, Solutions of Qualifying Tests from 2010 to 2023"
    You can simply find it!

    Just use t = tan(x/2) for the second question. For the 3rd question Integrating by parts is so easy, you get (x)(arcsin(cosx)) + (x^2)/2 + C. Anyways nice video!

      Even easier way found do it this way my friend I = int arcsin(u) * 1/sqrt(1-u^2) du => arcsin^2(u)-I +c
      => arcsin^2(u)/2 + c

    7:00 I think the integral becomes faster if you let u be sin 100x and v be sin^100 x. It follows that the integrand is just the derivative of uv divided by 100 and by fundamental theorem of calculus, the answer is easy to see. How would you know to do that? Pattern recognition. Also, I've noticed that sums on the bee tend to be derivatives of products in disguise. The real ingenious part is understanding that you need to split the sin(100x) into a sum.

    @Yuuki3uwu 3 года назад +2

    3:13, how about just write sinx/cos^2x as tanxsecx, and then integrate tanxsecx= secx? I’m sure that is faster than u substitution right?

      Yeah, but this is _easier_ (and the derivation of tan(x)sec(x) is calculated, no formula).

    In 2nd question u can write sinx/cos^2x to tanxsecx with Is integration of secx 👍
    Do not let u = cosx 👎

      I am in 9th grade from the U.S and I have seen some JEE integration problems. I would say they are not too tough because you only need to know a couple of tricks. Such as the "kings rule" and the fact that that the differentiation of denominator is in some form of the numerator. I am not posting to "show off" but rather to give what I think.

    • @tryingtopredict134

      @@qedmath1729 hmm.......ya.
      But I hope you would have checked out some jee advance problems and you can't judge the complete set with some sort of problems.
      It maybe true that the problems you picked up requires basic calculus and just short of tricks but I guess their are enough variation JEE advance can present you with.

      JEE is just a couple of problems using obscure tricks to solve. There is nothing special about JEE. You Indians just have delusion of grandeur.

      As the result, after JEE, all IIT or other universities in India are a joke. They cannot produce research mathematicians, only broken robots doing non-creative, repetitive work. And when you bring this up, they bring up Ramanujan. Well, Rama is an outlier, not a representative. And Rama is educated at Cambridge, not India.
      In the end, JEE is just a joke that gives the students a false sense of superior.
      If india has so many people that are good at maths, why don't they have lots of Field medalists? Why field medalists seem to come a lot from Europe and USA?
      See ? if you can only do obscure elementary maths, all you do is to complete a hoop people give to you, not contributing to real research.
