integral from 0 to pi/2 of 18cos^5(x)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 18 cos^{5} (x) d x

\frac{48}{5}

Decimal Notation

9.6

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 18 cos^{5} (x) d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 18 \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos^{5} (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= 18 \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} (1 - sin^{2} (x))^{2} cos (x) d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{0}^{1} (1 - u^{2})^{2} d u

= 18 \cdot \int_{0}^{1} (1 - u^{2})^{2} d u

Expand

(1 - u^{2})^{2} : 1 - 2 u^{2} + u^{4}

= 18 \cdot \int_{0}^{1} 1 - 2 u^{2} + u^{4} d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= 18 (\int_{0}^{1} 1 d u - \int_{0}^{1} 2 u^{2} d u + \int_{0}^{1} u^{4} d u)

\int_{0}^{1} 1 d u = 1

\int_{0}^{1} 2 u^{2} d u = \frac{2}{3}

\int_{0}^{1} u^{4} d u = \frac{1}{5}

= 18 (1 - \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{5})

Simplify

18 (1 - \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{5}) : \frac{48}{5}

= \frac{48}{5}

\int \frac{e ^{\frac{3}{x}}}{x ^{2}} d x

\int (x^{3} + 3)^{2} (3 x) d x

\int \frac{2 x + 1}{x ^{2} + 2 x + 50} d x

\int \frac{1}{x 16 x ^{2} + 1} d x

\frac{d y}{d x}, ln (y) = x
