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

\int_{0}^{π} 4 cos^{2} (x) d x

2 π

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{π} 4 cos^{2} (x) d x

Take the constant out:

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

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

Rewrite using trig identities

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

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

\int_{0}^{π} 1 d x = π

\int_{0}^{π} cos (2 x) d x = 0

= 4 \cdot \frac{1}{2} (π + 0)

Simplify

4 \cdot \frac{1}{2} (π + 0) : 2 π

= 2 π

\int_{- 1}^{0} x^{\frac{1}{3}} - x d x

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

\int_{- 6}^{6} x^{2} d x

\int_{0}^{t} \frac{sin ( t )}{t} d t

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