Do Now
3
Partial Fraction Decomposition Partial Fraction Decomposition can be used to evaluate integrals by breaking up a fraction into several easier fractions
4
Proper rational functions A rational function is considered proper if the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator. Only proper rational functions can be decomposed into partial fractions If a rational function is not proper, it must be divided (long division)
5
Partial Fraction Decomposition 1) Factor the denominator into irreducible linear and quadratic factors 2) Break up the fraction by each denominator factor 3a) Assign each linear factor a variable constant 3b) Assign each quadratic factor a variable linear expression 4) Combine each fraction together 5) Set up a system of equations and solve
