How do you integrate ln(x)

To integrate this function integration by parts is used where u = lnx and v = 1. The process of integration by parts is then carried out with the final answer being xlnx -x +c. 

The formula for integration by parts is I(u.dv/dx) = u.v - I(v.du/dx)

I'm trying to integrate f(x)=sin(x) between 0 and 2 pi to find the area between the graph and the axis but I keep getting 0, why?


The curve C has the equation y=3x/(9+x^2 ) (a) Find the turning points of the curve C (b) Using the fact that (d^2 y)/(dx^2 )=(6x(x^2-27))/(x^2+9)^3 or otherwise, classify the nature of each turning point of C


Find the area under the curve y = (4x^3) + (9x^2) - 2x + 7 between x=0 and x=2
