OpenStudy (wade123):

i am a little confused on this one, i keep on getting pi/2 but i do not think it is right

geerky42 (geerky42):

direct substitution means you just plug in value it approaches to, so plug in \(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\) HINT: what is \(\cos\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)\)?

i do not have a scientific calc at hand, one sec im gonna go online to find one

geerky42 (geerky42):

\(cos(\pi/2)=1\) ?

OpenStudy (wade123):

yes

OpenStudy (wade123):

oh wait, 0?

OpenStudy (wade123):

i get cos and sin mixed up

geerky42 (geerky42):

yeah it's 0 so 0 times 3e^(π/2) = 0 So your answer is 0. is this clear?

OpenStudy (wade123):

yes, thanks!
