Maybe I'm over-thinking this integral, but I don't know how to start it

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

\[\LARGE \int_{0}^{\pi/2}~cos^2\theta~d \theta\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use \(\cos (2\theta) = 2\cos^2\theta - 1\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \implies \cos^2\theta = \dfrac{1+\cos(2\theta)}{2}\)

I forgot about that formula, thanks gane :)
