In this post, I’ll be going through how to solve an integral using u-substitution. This is not an exhaustive document about all the tips and tricks for u-substitution. I’m simply writing this post as a reference for a future video/post about aligning torque, and I specifically needed to solve this integral. If you would like a more neatly formatted document, you can find the attached PDF at the end of the post. The integral we will be solving can be seen below.
