integral from 0 to pi/2 of xcos(2x)

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

- \frac{1}{2}

Decimal Notation

- 0.5

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

: \int_{0}^{π} \frac{u cos ( u )}{4} d u

= \int_{0}^{π} \frac{u cos ( u )}{4} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{4} \cdot \int_{0}^{π} u cos (u) d u

Apply Integration By Parts

: [u sin (u) - \int sin (u) d u]_{0}^{π}

= \frac{1}{4} [u sin (u) - \int sin (u) d u]_{0}^{π}

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

= \frac{1}{4} [u sin (u) - (- cos (u))]_{0}^{π}

Simplify

= \frac{1}{4} [u sin (u) + cos (u)]_{0}^{π}

Compute the boundaries:

- 2

= \frac{1}{4} (- 2)

Simplify

= - \frac{1}{2}

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{y} - e^{x y})

x \to + 0 lim ((x + 1)^{2} - x^{2})

x \to 3 - lim (\frac{7 - x - 5}{x - 3})

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

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