NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 7 Integrals · Exercise 7.6 Question 4

Evaluate \(\int x \log{\left(x \right)}\, dx\).

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\frac{x^{2} \log{\left(\left|{x}\right| \right)}}{2} - \frac{x^{2}}{4}\) + C.
  1. Work on each open interval where the original integrand is real and defined.
  2. Choose u=\(\log{\left(x \right)}\) and v=\(\frac{x^{2}}{2}\), so dv=\(x\)dx and du=\(\frac{1}{x}\)dx.
  3. Apply ∫u dv=uv−∫v du. The remaining integrand v·u′ is \(\frac{x}{2}\). Integrate it and subtract from uv.
  4. An antiderivative is F(x)=\(\frac{x^{2} \log{\left(\left|{x}\right| \right)}}{2} - \frac{x^{2}}{4}\).
  5. Differentiate this expression to check that F′(x)=\(x \log{\left(x \right)}\). Add an arbitrary constant C on each domain component.
