Integral(cos(2*x - 1), (x, pi/3, pi/2))
Detail solution
  1. Let .

    Then let and substitute :

    1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

      1. The integral of cosine is sine:

      So, the result is:

    Now substitute back in:

  2. Now simplify:

  3. Add the constant of integration:


The answer is:
