A stepwise solution that uses top-level commands except for one application of the Change command from the IntegrationTools package:
Initialization

Let be the name of the given integral.
|
|
|
Change variables as per Table 6.3.1
|
•
|
Use the Change command to apply the change of variables .
|
|
|
•
|
Simplify the radical to . Note the restriction imposed on .
(Maple believes that the cosine function is "simpler" than the secant.)
|
|
|
•
|
Use the value command to evaluate the integral, or follow the approach in Table 6.3.20(b), below.
|
|
|
•
|
Revert the change of variables by applying the substitution .

From Figure 6.3.3, , and .
The stepwise solution provided by the
tutor when the Constant, Constant Multiple, and Sum rules are taken as Understood Rules begins with the substitution and proceeds as shown in Table 6.3.20(a).
|
Table 6.3.20(a) The substitution made by the Integration Methods tutor
|
|
|
The substitution chosen by the tutor reduces the integrand to , the integration of which is the immediate .
Table 6.3.20(b) shows the result when the Change rule is imposed on the tutor.

|
|
|
To put the integrand into the form of a multiple of , the Rewrite rule must be applied because there is no way to apply routine simplifications in the tutor.
