integral from 0 to pi/2 of 2sin^2(x)

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

\frac{π}{2}

Decimal Notation

1.57079 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 2 sin^{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_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} sin^{2} (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= 2 \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} \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

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 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

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

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

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

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{2} - 0)

Simplify

2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{2} - 0) : \frac{π}{2}

= \frac{π}{2}

\int_{4}^{9} 4 x^{2} - 15 x + 7 d x

\int_{0}^{2} x cos (w x) d x

\int_{1}^{6} 2 π y (6 - y) d y

\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{x + 4} d x

\int_{0}^{2} (e^{x} + 2) d x
