Let f(t) be given function defined for t 0 , the the Laplace transform
is ,
F(s) = ∫ ( ) dt
Where F(s) is the Laplace transform of f(t) and it is denoted by ʆ f(t) and
Example(1)
ʆ f(t) = ʆ (1) = ∫ dt = - =

i.e ʆ =
Theorem (1)

Example(3)
cosh at = +
ʆ cosh at = ∫ + ∫
= [ + ]
i.e ʆ cosh at =
similarly ʆ sinh at = ʆ[ -

Time shifting- If the function f(t) has the Laplace transform F(s) ,and if
f(t) is time shifted by (a) such that ( ) , then

if n=1 , ʆ( ) = ∫ = =

Transform of derivative
ʆ( ) = sʆ(f) – f(0)
ʆ( ) = ∫ ( ) =[ ( ) + s∫ ( )

= - ( ) + sʆ(f)
ʆ( ) = sʆ( ) - ( )
= s[sʆ(f) - ( ) ] - ( )= ʆ(f) -s ( ) - ( )
Similarly
ʆ( )= () - ( )-s ( )- ( )

Since ʆ( ) = 2 ʆ( ) = 2 =
