+- *Integrand* is $f$.
+- $F(x)$ may be any integral, i.e. $c$ is inconsequential
+
+### Integration by substitution
+
+$$\int f(u) {du \over dx} \cdot dx = \int f(u) \cdot du$$
+
+Note $f(u)$ must be one-to-one $\implies$ one $x$ value for each $y$ value
+
+e.g. for $y=\int(2x+1)\sqrt{x+4} \cdot dx$:
+let $u=x+4$
+$\implies {du \over dx} = 1$
+$\implies x = u - 4$
+then $y=\int (2(u-4)+1)u^{1 \over 2} \cdot du$

+Substitute $u=\cos x$
+
+**$n$ is odd:**
+$n=2k+1$ where $k \in \mathbb{Z}$
+$\implies \cos^{2k+1} x = (\cos^2 x)^k \cos x = (1-\sin^2 x)^k \cos x$
+Subbstitute $u=\sin x$
+
+**$m$ and $n$ are even:**
+Use identities:

## Applications of antidifferentiation
- $x$-intercepts of $y=f(x)$ identify $x$-coordinates of stationary points on $y=F(x)$
-- the nature of any stationary point of $y=F(x)$ is determined by the way the sign of the graph of $y=f(x)$ changes about its $x$-intercepts
+- nature of stationary points is determined by sign of $y=f(x)$ on either side of its $x$-intercepts
- if $f(x)$ is a polynomial of degree $n$, then $F(x)$ has degree $n+1$
To find stationary points of a function, substitute $x$ value of given point into derivative. Solve for ${dy \over dx}=0$. Integrate to find original function.
