integral from-2 to 0 of-cos((npix)/2)

\int_{- 2}^{0} - cos (\frac{nπ x}{2}) d x

0

Solution steps

\int_{- 2}^{0} - cos (\frac{nπ x}{2}) d x

Take the constant out:

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

= - \int_{- 2}^{0} cos (\frac{nπ x}{2}) d x

Apply u-substitution

= - \int_{- πn}^{0} \frac{2 cos ( u )}{πn} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= - \frac{2}{πn} \cdot \int_{- πn}^{0} cos (u) d u

Use the common integral:

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

= - \frac{2}{πn} [sin (u)]_{- πn}^{0}

Compute the boundaries:

0

= - \frac{2}{πn} \cdot 0

Simplify

= 0
