\chapter{Techniques of Integration} \label{chp 7} We have found indefinite integrals for many functions. Nevertheless, there are many seemingly simple functions for which we have as yet no method of integration. Among these, for example, are [math]\ln x[/math] and [math]\sqrt{a^2 - x^2}[/math], since we have no way of finding [math]\int \ln x dx[/math] and [math]\int \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} dx[/math]. In this chapter we shall develop a number of techniques, each of which will enlarge the set of functions which we can integrate.
