How the Integrals Class 12 NCERT Solutions on the Integrals Class 12 NCERT Solutions Help You
Integration by parts is the technique where students lose marks not in the formula but in the ILATE order. The Collegedunia solutions name the function families, apply ILATE on a separate line, and only then invoke the formula.
ILATE pick stated upfront, e.g. "Take u = x (algebraic), dv = sin x dx (trig)".
Two-stage parts applied without skipping the intermediate ∫ v du for x2 ex and ex sin x type sums.
Inverse-trig sums include the radical-rationalisation step for ∫ √1 - x2 dx .
Expert's Solution flags where the shortcut ex[f(x) + f'(x)] saves a parts cycle.
Integrals Exercise 7.5 Step-by-Step Approach
Every parts problem in this exercise follows the same five-step routine.
Identify the two functions being multiplied. Tag each by family: Inverse, Logarithmic, Algebraic, Trigonometric, or Exponential.
Apply ILATE to pick u: whichever family comes first in I-L-A-T-E becomes u, the other becomes dv.
Differentiate u and integrate dv to get du and v. Keep these on separate lines.
Plug into the formula ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du . The new integral on the right should be simpler than the original.
Re-apply parts if needed (for x2 ex, parts is applied twice) or use the special ex[f(x) + f'(x)] result where it fits.
Picking the wrong u is the top cause of an unsolvable second integral.

Common Mistakes Students Make in Exercise 7.5
Students frequently lose marks on this exercise the same way, so the list below flags the exact slip.
Common Mistake: Picking the wrong function as u. Setting u = ex and dv = x dx in ∫ x ex dx makes the second integral ∫ (x2/2) ex dx , which is harder than the original. ILATE forces u = x so the second integral simplifies.
Forgetting the minus sign in uv - ∫ v du ; writing it as uv + ∫ v du is a frequent 1-mark loss.
For ex sin x, failing to recognise that the second parts application reproduces the original integral and treating the two as different.
Missing the ex[f(x) + f'(x)] = exf(x) + C shortcut on Q18-Q20 and grinding through full parts.
Not adding the constant of integration C at the end, costing a CBSE step mark.
Integration by Parts Formula Quick-Recall
Three formulas cover almost every problem in Exercise 7.5.
Main formula: ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du
Special result: ∫ ex[f(x) + f'(x)] dx = exf(x) + C

Questions
Q 7.1
Integrate x(x+1)(x+2).
Concept used. The denominator is a product of distinct linear factors, so the
proper rational function decomposes as
x(x+1)(x+2) = Ax+1 + Bx+2.
Multiply out and solve for A, B by equating coefficients or by substituting convenient
x values.
Multiply both sides by (x+1)(x+2):
x = A(x+2) + B(x+1).
Substitute x = -1: -1 = A(1) + B(0) ⇒ A = -1.
Substitute x = -2: -2 = A(0) + B(-1) ⇒ B = 2.
Decomposition:
x(x+1)(x+2) = -1x+1 + 2x+2.
Integrate term-by-term:
∫ = -log|x+1| + 2log|x+2| + C = log|(x+2)2x+1| + C.
log|(x+2)2x+1| + C

Quick reading. Distinct linear factors ⇒ two unknowns.
x(x+1)(x+2) = -1x+1 + 2x+2.
Integrate: -log|x+1| + 2log|x+2| + C.
2log|x+2| - log|x+1| + C
Q 7.2
Integrate 1x2 - 9.
Concept used.x2 - 9 = (x-3)(x+3). Apply the standard form
∫ dxx2 - a2 = 12alog|x-ax+a| + C with a = 3,
or decompose into partial fractions directly.
Apply the standard form with a = 3:
∫ dxx2 - 9 = 16log|x - 3x + 3| + C.
x = -1: -2 = A(1) ⇒ A = -2.
x = -2: -4 = B(-1) ⇒ B = 4.
Integrate:
-2log|x+1| + 4log|x+2| + C = log|(x+2)4(x+1)2| + C.
4log|x+2| - 2log|x+1| + C

(x+1)(x+2). A = -2, B = 4.
-2log|x+1| + 4log|x+2| + C.
4log|x+2| - 2log|x+1| + C
Q 7.6
Integrate 1 - x2x(1 - 2x).
Concept used. The numerator has the same degree as the denominator, so first
divide to make the rational function proper, then apply partial fractions.
Multiply out denominator: x(1 - 2x) = x - 2x2. Numerator 1 - x2 has degree 2;
denominator also degree 2. Divide.
Long division of 1 - x2 by -2 x2 + x:
1 - x2-2 x2 + x = 12 + 1 - x/2x(1 - 2x).
(Quotient 1/2 comes from 1/(-2) = -1/2 flipped because we keep the original
denominator orientation x(1 - 2x).)
Decompose the remainder:
1 - x/2x(1-2x) = Ax + B1 - 2x.
Multiply through: 1 - x/2 = A(1 - 2x) + Bx. x = 0: 1 = A.
x = 1/2: 1 - 1/4 = B(1/2) ⇒ B = 3/2.

Integrals Class 12 NCERT Solutions - Frequently Asked Questions
Ques. How many questions are in Class 12 Maths Chapter 7 Exercise 7.5?
Ans. Exercise 7.5 of Class 12 Maths Chapter 7 Integrals carries 22 questions in the 2026-27 NCERT. Q1 to Q20 are integration sums applying the parts formula, and Q21 to Q22 are MCQ-style questions on the ILATE order.
Ques. What concept does Exercise 7.5 of Class 12 Maths Chapter 7 cover?
Ans. Exercise 7.5 covers integration by parts using the formula ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du . The ILATE rule (Inverse, Logarithmic, Algebraic, Trigonometric, Exponential) decides which function becomes u. The exercise also introduces the special result ∫ ex[f(x) + f'(x)] dx = exf(x) + C.
Ques. What is the ILATE rule for integration by parts?
Ans.ILATE stands for Inverse trigonometric, Logarithmic, Algebraic, Trigonometric, and Exponential. When two functions are multiplied in an integrand, the one that appears earlier in this list is chosen as u, and the other becomes dv. This guarantees that ∫ v du is simpler than the original integral.
Ques. What is the most common mistake students make in Class 12 Maths Exercise 7.5?
Ans. Picking the wrong function as u. Without ILATE, students often choose the wrong split and end up with a second integral that is harder than the original. CBSE marking schemes deduct up to 2 marks on a 3-mark question when the parts split is unjustified.
Ques. How do I download the Class 12 Maths Chapter 7 Exercise 7.5 NCERT Solutions PDF?
