Indefinite Integration 1 Question 34

35. The value of 02π[2sinx]dx, where [.] represents the greatest integral functions, is

(a) 5π3

(b) π

(c) 5π3

(d) 2π

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. It is a question of greatest integer function. We have, subdivide the interval π to 2π as under keeping in view that we have to evaluate [2sinx]

We know that, sinπ6=12

sinπ+π6=sin7π6=12sin11π6=sin2ππ6=sinπ6=12sin9π6=sin3π6=1

Hence, we divide the interval π to 2π as

π,7π6,7π6,11π6,11π6,2πsinx=0,12,1,12,12,02sinx=(0,1),(2,1),(1,0)[2sinx]=1=π7π/6[2sinx]dx+7π/611π/6[2sinx]dx+11π/62π[2sinx]dx=π7π/6(1)dx+7π/611π/6(2)dx+11π/62π(1)dx=π624π6π6=10π6=5π3
