Integral of 1/x = ln(x)... Problem has missing absolute value!?
This is an ODE problem and solution, but what I'm not understanding here is calculus based:
Why does the argument to the red-boxed ln() not in absolute value signs?? ( | | )
u = cos(t) so the numerator can be negative. I am just confused as to why they left that out.
Thanks for any help.
