Lesson Plan: Reverse Chain Rule Mathematics
This lesson plan includes the objectives and prerequisites of the lesson teaching students how to evaluate integrals of functions in the form 𝑘𝑓′(𝑥)/𝑓(𝑥) and 𝑘𝑓′(𝑥)(𝑓(𝑥))^𝑛.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- use the reverse chain rule to integrate functions in the form ,
- use the reverse chain rule to integrate functions in the form ,
- find the value of a constant in a definite integral, given the value of that integral.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- the chain rule for differentiation,
- finding definite and indefinite integrals of standard functions.
