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

\int_{0}^{2 \cdot π} sin^{2} (x) d x

π

Decimal

3.14159 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{2 π} sin^{2} (x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int_{0}^{2 π} \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

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{0}^{2 π} 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

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

\int_{0}^{2 π} 1 d x = 2 π

\int_{0}^{2 π} cos (2 x) d x = 0

= \frac{1}{2} (2 π - 0)

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} (2 π - 0) : π

= π

\int_{1}^{4} (t^{2} - t - 6) d t

\int_{0}^{t} 2 t d t

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

\int_{1}^{3} \frac{5}{t} d t

\int_{0}^{4} x - \frac{x ^{2}}{16} d x
