Need help plugging in bounds in a u-substitution

This is a really basic question but I'm just a little confused. I have this integral: $$\int_{0}^{2\pi}\cos^3tdt$$ I solved it by doing a u-sub: $$\int_{0}^{2\pi}\cos t(1-\sin^2t)dt$$ Let $u=\sin t$, ... user avatar user8358234

Evan's statement about integral of the divergence of a vector field.

At the start of Evan;s textbook there is this statement: How can we conclude 3 from the first equality? Why can't it be that the divergence is positive and negative over the volume in equal ... user avatar Makogan

Calculating the integeral $\int_0^{\infty}\frac{{(e^{-ax}-e^{-bx})}{\cos(cx)}}{x}dx$

I want to calculate:$$\int_0^{\infty}\frac{{(e^{-ax}-e^{-bx})}{\cos(cx)}}{x}dx(a,b,c > 0)\tag{1}$$And I want to use:$$\frac{x}{x^2+k^2}=\int_{0}^{\infty}e^{-xy}\cos{ky}dy\tag{2}$$So,I want to think:... user avatar Flat leaf

Is there any method other than Feynman’s Integration Technique to find $ \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \ln \left(a \cos ^{2} x+b \sin ^{2} x+c\right) d x?$

We are going to find the formula, by Feynman’s Integration Technique, for $$\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \ln \left(a \cos ^{2} x+b \sin ^{2} x+c\right) d x,$$ where $a+c$ $\textrm{ and }$ $b+c$ are ... user avatar Lai

Non-obvious Trigometric Integral

Prove that for every $\alpha\ge 0$ then $$\int_0^{\pi/4} (\sin(t)\cos(t))^\alpha(1-(\alpha+2)\cos^2(2t)) = 0$$ This is so non-obvious to me. user avatar Bobby Ocean
