What is the integral from 0 to pi/4 of cos^2(4x) ?

The integral from 0 to pi/4 of cos^2(4x) is pi/8

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

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos^{2} (4 x) d x

\frac{π}{8}

Decimal

0.39269 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos^{2} (4 x) d x

Rewrite using trig identities

= \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} \frac{1}{2} (1 + cos (8 x)) 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}^{\frac{π}{4}} 1 + cos (8 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}^{\frac{π}{4}} 1 d x + \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos (8 x) d x)

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} 1 d x = \frac{π}{4}

\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{4}} cos (8 x) d x = 0

= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{4} + 0)

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} (\frac{π}{4} + 0) : \frac{π}{8}

= \frac{π}{8}

\int \frac{2 x + 1}{x ^{3} - 7 x + 6} d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (4 (e^{x} - x^{2} y))

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{20 x + x ^{2}}{( 10 + x ) ^{2}})

\int \frac{1}{cos ^{2} ( y )} d y
