Diverges or converges?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

\[\LARGE \int_{0}^{\infty}~sin^2 \alpha~d \alpha\] I'm assuming diverges but I'm not sure how to show it.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \int \limits_0^{\infty} \sin^2 \alpha d\alpha = \lim \limits_{t\to \infty }\int \limits_0^{t} \sin^2 \alpha d\alpha \]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

evaluate the integral and take the limit

Miracrown (miracrown):

right

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use this : \(\sin^2 x = \dfrac{1-\cos (2x)}{2}\)
