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

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

0

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{- π}^{π} cos (u) \frac{1}{2} d u

= \int_{- π}^{π} cos (u) \frac{1}{2} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{- π}^{π} cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= \frac{1}{2} [sin (u)]_{- π}^{π}

Compute the boundaries:

0

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 0

Simplify

= 0

\int_{- 1}^{4} \frac{1}{x ^{2} + x - 2} d x

\int_{2}^{6} 3 d x

\int_{0}^{3} 3 x^{2} - 3 d x

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

\int_{0}^{π} x^{4} cos (n x) d x
