integral from 0 to 2pi of sin(x/2)

\int_{0}^{2 π} sin (\frac{x}{2}) d x

4

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{2 π} sin (\frac{x}{2}) d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int_{0}^{π} sin (u) \cdot 2 d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int_{0}^{π} sin (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= 2 [- cos (u)]_{0}^{π}

Compute the boundaries:

2

= 2 \cdot 2

Simplify

= 4
