![For module problem you need to approach in the following way ∣f(x)∣ find range of x for which f(x)≥0 ∣f(x)∣ find range of x for which f(x)<0 Split the definite integral in parts where f(x)≥0 and where f(x)<0 replace ∣f(x)∣ by f(x) or −f(x) For example ∫_0 ^3 ∣1−x^2 ∣ dx ∣1−x^2 ∣≥0 for x∈[0,1] ∣1−x^2 ∣<0 for x∈(1,3] ∫_0 ^3 ∣1−x^2 ∣ dx=∫_0 ^1 (1−x^2 )dx+∫_1 ^2 −(1−x^2 )dx](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q12427.png)
