Problem 1

The integral evaluates the integral of cos(3A) from 0 to pi/6. It makes a u-substitution of u=3A and changes the limits accordingly. It then evaluates the integral of cos(u) from 0 to pi/2 using the Wallis formula for integrals of cosine and determines the value is 35pi/768.

Evaluate the integral ( cos 3A ) 8 dA from 0 to pi/6.

Solutions
/6

cos 3A dA

Let: u = 3A; du = 3dA thus, dA = du/3


Change limits:
when A = 0, u = 0; at A = / 6, u = / 2
Substitute:

/2

du

cos 8 u =
3 3

/2

cos 8 u du

Using Wallis formula: n 8 and = / 2, since n is an even number
