1. Find the differential $dx$ and the new limits for $\theta$.
Using x=cos2θ:
dθdx=2cosθ(−sinθ)=−2cosθsinθ
Finding the new limits:
When x=0, cos2θ=0⟹cosθ=0⟹θ=2π
When x=21, cos2θ=21⟹cosθ=21⟹θ=4π
2. Substitute $x$, $dx$, and the limits into the integral and simplify.
∫0211−xxdx=∫2π4π1−cos2θcos2θ(−2cosθsinθ)dθ=∫2π4πsin2θcosθ(−2cosθsinθ)dθ=∫2π4πsinθcosθ(−2cosθsinθ)dθ=∫2π4π−2cos2θdθ=∫4π2π2cos2θdθ3. Use the double angle identity to integrate.
Applying the identity 2cos2θ=1+cos2θ:
∫4π2π2cos2θdθ=∫4π2π(1+cos2θ)dθ=[θ+21sin2θ]4π2π4. Substitute the limits to find the exact value.
[θ+21sin2θ]4π2π=(2π+21sin(π))−(4π+21sin(2π))=(2π+0)−(4π+21(1))=4π−21答案4π−21
