integral from 0 to pi/2 of 12cos^5(x)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 12 cos^{5} (x) d x

\frac{32}{5}

Decimal Notation

6.4

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 12 cos^{5} (x) d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 12 \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos^{5} (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= 12 \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

= 12 \cdot \int_{0}^{1} (1 - u^{2})^{2} d u

Expand

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

= 12 \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

= 12 (\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}

= 12 (1 - \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{5})

Simplify

12 (1 - \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{5}) : \frac{32}{5}

= \frac{32}{5}

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

\frac{s}{s ( s + 1 )}

\int \frac{e ^{\frac{8}{x}}}{x ^{2}} d x

\frac{d}{d x} (- 2 sec^{2} (x) tan (x))

x \to 0 lim (- csc^{2} (x))
