integral of cos(x/2)

integral

cos (\frac{x}{2})

2 sin (\frac{x}{2}) + C

Solution steps

\int cos (\frac{x}{2}) d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int cos (u) \cdot 2 d u

= \int cos (u) \cdot 2 d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= 2 sin (u)

Substitute back

u = \frac{x}{2}

= 2 sin (\frac{x}{2})

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 sin (\frac{x}{2}) + C

\frac{x ^{3}}{( x + 1 ) ^{2}}

\frac{x ^{2}}{( x ^{2} + 5 )}

(x - 1) (x + 3)^{3}

(e^{y})^{2}

\frac{1}{( x + 1 )}
