I had a calculus 1 final tonight and I'm confident I aced it except for one problem. Sorry for the lack of symbols but if there are any degree holding professionals here hopefully
they'll understand.
Anyway the problem was: the integral (big S) sinx/1+x^2 on the closed interval [-1,1]
I know the problem requires substitution but I just don't know how to manipulate it to be easier. I first thought let u = tan^-1x but that got me nowhere. Then I pretty much gave up because, like I said I aced the test(minus this problem) and aced the class so I wasn't really concerned about missing one question.(plus like everyone else here I wanted to get ripped cause I fasted for three hours before the test) Now four hours later its bothering the fuck out of me and Google is of no help(maybe cause I'm ripped).
Sorry if I kill anyone's buzz by the way..........It may be much to ask but rep is due to some calculus genius for a (moderately)detailed description.
