integral of cos(pix)

\int cos (π x) d x

\frac{1}{π} sin (π x) + C

Solution steps

\int cos (π x) d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int cos (u) \frac{1}{π} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{π} \cdot \int cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

\int cos (u) d u = sin (u)

= \frac{1}{π} sin (u)

Substitute back

u = π x

= \frac{1}{π} sin (π x)

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{π} sin (π x) + C
