Category: Indeterminate integrals

Euler’s substitutions in indefinite integrals are the next thing introduced after rational integrals, trigonometric integrals, and root integrals. This means that most students won’t have the pleasure of encountering them, and I haven’t included them in my Course on Indefinite Integrals.

However, there remains quite a large group of students in mathematical fields who have to deal with Euler’s substitutions, and I invite these (and the curious) to join. I will discuss all three types of Euler’s substitutions (in this post I will cover the first type) and provide one example for each.
