What is the purpose of the substitution in the integration process?

• To eliminate the variable

• To increase the degree of the polynomial

• To simplify the expression for easier integration

• To change the limits of integration

What is the integral of 1 with respect to theta?

• Theta squared

• Theta

• 1

• Zero

How is the expression transformed into a standard form?

• By changing the variable of integration

• By adding a constant to the numerator
