Question

Evaluate the following definite integrals:$\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\cos^4\text{x}\text{ dx}$

✓

Answer

We have,$\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\cos^4\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$=\frac{1}{4}\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}(1+\cos2\text{x})^2\text{dx}$ $\big[\because2\cos^2\text{x}=1+\cos2\text{x}\big]$
$=\frac{1}{4}\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(1+\cos^22\text{x}+2\cos2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$
$=\frac{1}{4}\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\Big(1+\frac{1+\cos4\text{x}}{2}+2\cos2\text{x}\Big)\text{dx}$
$=\frac{1}{4}\Big[\text{x}+\frac{1}{2}\text{x}+\frac{\sin4\text{x}}{8}+\sin2\text{x}\Big]^{\frac{\pi}{2}}_0$ $\Big[\because\int\cos4\text{x dx}=\frac{\sin4\text{x}}{4}\Big]$
$=\frac{1}{4}\Big[\frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{\pi}{4}+0+0-0-0-0-0\Big]$
$=\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{3\pi}{4}$
$=\frac{3\pi}{16}$
