Simple Integration of sin(2x) by gruja_sk on 2008-03-14 03:39:56
Hi

My question is can the integral of sin(2x)=-cos(kx)/k be equivalent to -cos(x)? Can someone explain to me if I'm wright or wrong.

Go easy on me I'm still in high school.

Thanks

Projecting two non-parallel lines until they meet by Stropharia on 2008-03-06 02:11:20
Hi,

this ostensibly seems to be a simple problem, but i'm not sure how to go about solving it.

I'll present a simplified, hypothetical example:

I have two non-parallel lines, lets say of length 3 and 5 (in whatever units). I also know the distances between all four end points of the lines - and therefore the angles of the polygon that could be made by joining the line ends together. What I want to do is project both lines until they meet, then calculate the angle between the lines at the point at which they meet. Ideally, I would also know the length of the projected sections along each line. Is possible? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Steve

Infinite series in integration by curious on 2008-02-06 13:53:58
How can I find integrals (for example recurring integrals) in terms of infinte sum notation??

Example.. What is the integral of e^(cos x) dx ???
How to find the answer in terms of infinte power series?

Thanks

challenge integral by curious on 2008-01-29 07:45:33
Evaluate integral e^(cos x) dx

Also what is integral (x^2 + 1)^n dx , where n is a constant
