integral from 0 to pi/2 of cos(4x)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos (4 x) d x

0

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} cos (4 x) d x

Apply u-substitution

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

Use the common integral:

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

= \frac{1}{4} [sin (u)]_{0}^{2 π}

Compute the boundaries:

0

= \frac{1}{4} \cdot 0

Simplify

= 0
