integral from pi/6 to pi/2 of 2cot^2(x)

\int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} 2 cot^{2} (x) d x

2 (- \frac{π}{3} + 3)

Decimal Notation

1.36970 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} 2 cot^{2} (x) d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} cot^{2} (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= 2 \cdot \int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} - 1 + csc^{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

= 2 (- \int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} 1 d x + \int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} csc^{2} (x) d x)

\int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} 1 d x = \frac{π}{3}

\int_{\frac{π}{6}}^{\frac{π}{2}} csc^{2} (x) d x = 3

= 2 (- \frac{π}{3} + 3)

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

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{5}{( 2 - x ) ^{\frac{2}{3}}} d x

\int_{0}^{\frac{1}{2}} x^{2} e^{- x} d x

\int_{0}^{2} x e^{- \frac{x ^{2} - 1}{2}} d x

\int_{- 3}^{\infty} e^{x} d x
