integral from 0 to pi/2 of cos(nx)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos (n x) d x

\frac{sin ( \frac{πn}{2} )}{n}

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos (n x) d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{0}^{\frac{πn}{2}} \frac{cos ( u )}{n} d u

= \int_{0}^{\frac{πn}{2}} \frac{cos ( u )}{n} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{n} \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{πn}{2}} cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int cos (u) d u = sin (u)

= \frac{1}{n} [sin (u)]_{0}^{\frac{πn}{2}}

Compute the boundaries:

sin (\frac{πn}{2})

= \frac{1}{n} sin (\frac{πn}{2})

Simplify

= \frac{sin ( \frac{πn}{2} )}{n}

\int_{0}^{\frac{24}{25}} 1 + 25 x d x

\int_{1}^{4} e^{- x} (x - 1) d x

\int_{2}^{3} \frac{2 x}{( x ^{2} + 3 ) ^{3}} d x

\int_{- 1}^{1} \frac{3}{2} x^{2} d x

\int_{0}^{x^{2}} f (t) d t
