integral from pi/3 to pi/2 of cos(2x)

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

- \frac{3}{4}

Decimal Notation

- 0.43301 \dots

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{\frac{2 π}{3}}^{π} cos (u) \frac{1}{2} d u

= \int_{\frac{2 π}{3}}^{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_{\frac{2 π}{3}}^{π} cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= \frac{1}{2} [sin (u)]_{\frac{2 π}{3}}^{π}

Compute the boundaries:

- \frac{3}{2}

= \frac{1}{2} (- \frac{3}{2})

Simplify

= - \frac{3}{4}

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} (1 - sin (x)) d x

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

\int_{0}^{2 π} cos (x^{2}) d x

\int_{0}^{4} 4 - x^{2} - (4 - 4 x) d x

\int_{1}^{4} - 2 x + 6 d x
