integral from pi/2 to pi of sin(x)cos(x)

\int_{\frac{π}{2}}^{π} sin (x) cos (x) d x

- \frac{1}{2}

Decimal

- 0.5

Solution steps

\int_{\frac{π}{2}}^{π} sin (x) cos (x) d x

Apply u-substitution

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

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

\int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x = - \int_{b}^{a} f (x) d x, a < b

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

Apply the Power Rule

: [\frac{u ^{2}}{2}]_{0}^{1}

= - [\frac{u ^{2}}{2}]_{0}^{1}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{1}{2}

= - \frac{1}{2}

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} sin (x) cos (x) d x

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

\int_{0}^{8} \frac{1}{2 ( x ^{\frac{1}{3}} )} d x

\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{x ^{p}} d x

\int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{sin ( x )}{1 + x ^{2}} d x
