Good day my friends!!!

Are you ready for today’s

session?

We are going to discuss

Integration by Substitution of
Algebraic Functions using Power
Formula
At he end of the lesson, you should
be able to:
•apply the general power
formula
•identify integrals that can be
solved using the general
power
formula
•evaluate integrals using
general
power formula
