Question
Integrals of the form \(\int \sin m x \cos n x d x\) Use the following three identities to evaluate the given integrals.
\(\sin m x \sin n x =\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)-\cos ((m+n) x)]\)
\(\sin m x \cos n x =\frac{1}{2}[\sin ((m-n) x)+\sin ((m+n) x)]\)
\(\cos m x \cos n x =\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)+\cos ((m+n) x)]\)
\(\int \cos x \cos 2 x d x\)
Solution
The first step in solving 7.2 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Integrals of the form \(\int \sin m x \cos n x d x\) Use the following three identities to evaluate the given integrals.\(\sin m x \sin n x =\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)-\cos ((m+n) x)]\)\(\sin m x \cos n x =\frac{1}{2}[\sin ((m-n) x)+\sin ((m+n) x)]\)\(\cos m x \cos n x =\frac{1}{2}[\cos ((m-n) x)+\cos ((m+n) x)]\)\(\int \cos x \cos 2 x d x\)
From the textbook chapter Trigonometric Integrals you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
