[SOLVED] Integration using substitution
Problem: Find the integral of:
\int\sin^{6}\theta\cos\theta d\theta
My attempt:
Let u\equiv\cos\theta
so: du\equiv\sin\thetad\theta
Only I don't know where to go from there.
The book says it should \frac{1}{7}\sin^{7}\theta+C but I have no idea how they got that.
I'm probably missing something obvious here.
