What is F'(x) when F(x)=Integral from 0 to x of (sin^2(t) dt)
\[F(x)=\int\limits_{0}^{x}\sin^2(t)dt\] What is F'(x)
you need to use a trig identity for sin^2(t)
what is a trig identity?
you are in calculus but you do not know what a trig identity is?
im bad with terminology. I thought that the derivative of sin^2(t) was just 2cost
\[\sin^{2}(x) = \frac{1}{2}(1 + \cos(2t))\]
you can replace sin with the right side of the equality
ok but what about the fact that it's F(x) and it's t in the function?
just replace the x with a t
oh lol ok
i didn't know that thx
\[F(x)=\int\limits\limits_{0}^{x}\frac{1}{2}(1 + \cos(2t))dt\]
\[F(x)=\frac{1}{2}\int\limits\limits\limits_{0}^{x}(1 + \cos(2t))dt\]
so \[F'(x)=\int\limits_{0}^{x}2\cos(2t)\] Right?
no you need to integrate the first function
so \[F(x)=1/2(t-\sin(2t)/2)\]
yeah no plug in the upper and lower limits
yeah i guess my identiy was a little of but it looks like you corrected it
ok so then now i can find f'(x) right?
which would be 1/2-cos(2t)/2 right?
yes but you were supposed to plulg in the upper and lower limits which would of changed it to x
ok, so it would be\[F'(x)=(1-\cos(2x))\div2\]
yeah
ok thx
