The discussion revolves around integrating a function of the form ∫ ydx/(x² + y²)^(3/2), focusing on the challenges of finding an appropriate substitution for the integral.
The conversation is ongoing, with participants sharing their attempts and questioning the viability of different substitution strategies. Some guidance has been offered regarding potential substitutions, but no consensus has been reached on a definitive approach.
There is mention of online resources and tutorials, indicating a search for additional support in tackling the integral. The original poster expresses difficulty in finding a suitable substitution, which may reflect constraints in their understanding or resources.
Abdulwahab Hajar said:I tried anything with x but that won't work, I checked it online I believe I have to try x = ytanθ... right?
and would it be a double substitution because we have function that the denominator is to the power of 3/2
