Question
By using the properties of the definite integral, evaluate the integral:
`int_((-pi)/2)^(pi/2) sin^2 x dx`
Advertisements
Solution
Let`I = int_(-pi//2)^(pi//2) sin^2 x dx`
`= 2 int_0^(pi//2) sin^2 x dx` ...(i) ...(∵ sin2 x is a function)
Then `I = 2 int_0^(pi//2) sin^2 (pi/2 - x) dx`
`= int_0^(pi//2) cos^2 x dx` ...(ii) `[because int_0^a f(x) = int_0^a f(a - x) dx]`
On adding equations (i) and (ii)
`2I = 2 int_0^(pi//2) (sin^2 x + cos^2 x) dx`
`2I = 2 int_0^(pi//2) 1 dx`
`=> 2I = 2 [x]_0^(pi//2)`
`=> 2I = 2 xx pi/2`
Hence, `I = pi/2`

By completing the following activity, Evaluate `int_2^5 (sqrt(x))/(sqrt(x) + sqrt(7 - x)) "d"x`.
Solution: Let I = `int_2^5 (sqrt(x))/(sqrt(x) + sqrt(7 - x)) "d"x` ......(i)
Using the property, `int_"a"^"b" "f"(x) "d"x = int_"a"^"b" "f"("a" + "b" - x) "d"x`, we get
I = `int_2^5 ("( )")/(sqrt(7 - x) + "( )") "d"x` ......(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get
2I = `int_2^5 (sqrt(x))/(sqrt(x) - sqrt(7 - x)) "d"x + ( ) "d"x`
2I = `int_2^5 (("( )" + "( )")/("( )" + "( )")) "d"x`
2I = `square`
∴ I = `square`
