integral from 0 to pi of cos(nt)

\int_{0}^{π} cos (n t) d t

0

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{π} cos (n t) d t

Apply u-substitution

= \int_{0}^{nπ} \frac{cos ( u )}{n} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= \frac{1}{n} \cdot \int_{0}^{nπ} cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= \frac{1}{n} [sin (u)]_{0}^{nπ}

Compute the boundaries:

0

= \frac{1}{n} \cdot 0

Simplify

= 0
