integral from 0 to 2 of 1/(sqrt(16-x^2))

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{1}{16 - x ^{2}} d x

\frac{π}{6}

Decimal

0.52359 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{1}{16 - x ^{2}} d x

Apply Trigonometric Substitution

= \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{6}} 1 d u

Integral of a constant:

\int a d x = a x

= [1 \cdot u]_{0}^{\frac{π}{6}}

Simplify

= [u]_{0}^{\frac{π}{6}}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{π}{6}

= \frac{π}{6}
