integral from 0 to pi/2 of cos^2(3t)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos^{2} (3 t) d t

\frac{π}{4}

Decimal

0.78539 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos^{2} (3 t) d t

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} \frac{1}{2} (1 + cos (6 t)) d t

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}{2}} 1 + cos (6 t) d t

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}{2}} 1 d t + \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos (6 t) d t)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 1 d t = \frac{π}{2}

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos (6 t) d t = 0

= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{2} + 0)

Simplify

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

= \frac{π}{4}

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} (8 sec^{2} (x)) d x

\int_{1}^{2} (15 x^{4} - 4 x) d x

\int_{1}^{2} (8 x^{3} + \frac{6}{x ^{2}}) d x

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{6 - x - y}{8} d x

\int_{x}^{x^{4}} t^{3} d t
