integral from 0 to pi/4 of cos^2(2x)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos^{2} (2 x) d x

\frac{π}{8}

Decimal Notation

0.39269 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos^{2} (2 x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} \frac{1}{2} (1 + cos (4 x)) d x

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} 1 + cos (4 x) d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

= \frac{1}{2} (\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} 1 d x + \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos (4 x) d x)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} 1 d x = \frac{π}{4}

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

= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{4} + 0)

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{4} + 0) : \frac{π}{8}

= \frac{π}{8}

\int_{- π}^{π} x^{2} cos (x) d x

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

\int_{- 1}^{1} 2 cos (\frac{π}{3} x) d x

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

\int_{0}^{60} 100 e^{- 0.01 t} d t
