Introduction to Laplace Transform
Let f(x) be defined for 0 ≤ x < ∞ and let s denote an arbitrary real
variable. The Laplace transform of f (x), designated by either L or
F (s), is
R∞
L {f (x)}=F (s)= 0 e−sx f (x)dx
for all values of s for which the improper integral converges.
Convergence occur when the limit
RR
limR−→∞ 0 e−sx f (x)dx
exists.

Prove that
If L {f (x)} = F (s), L {g(x)} = G(s), then for any two constants
c1 and c2
L {c1 f (x) + c2 g(x)} = c1 L {f (x)} + c2 L {g(x)}
Proof
L {c1 f (x) + c2 g(x)} =
R∞
e−sx [c1 f (x) + c2 g(x)] dx
R∞
R∞
L {c1 f (x) + c2 g(x)} = 0 e−sx [c1 f (x)] dx + 0 e−sx [c2 g(x)] dx

R∞
L {c1 f (x) + c2 g(x)} = c1 0 e−sx f (x) dx + c2 0 e−sx g(x) dx
0
L {c1 f (x) + c2 g(x)} = c1 L {f (x)} + c2 L {g(x)}
Putting c1 = c2 = 1
L {f (x) + g(x)} = L {f (x)} + L {g(x)}

L {ebx cos ax} =

(s−b)2 +a2
Find L {ebx sin ax + ebx cos ax}
Solution
Since
2 L {f (x) + g(x)} = L {f (x)} + L {g(x)}
Putting f (x) = ebx sin ax, g(x) = ebx cos ax
L {ebx sin ax + ebx cos ax} = L {ebx sin ax} + L {ebx cos ax}
Putting
L {ebx sin ax} =
a
(s−b)2 +a2
L {ebx cos ax} =
s−b
(s−b)2 +a2
L {ebx sin ax + ebx cos ax} =
a
(s−b)2 +a2
L {ebx sin ax + ebx cos ax} =
s+a−b
(s−b)2 +a2
