Integral(1/(4 - 3*cos(x)), (x, 0, pi/2))
Detail solution
  1. Rewrite the integrand:

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

    1. Don't know the steps in finding this integral.

      But the integral is

    So, the result is:

  3. Now simplify:

  4. Add the constant of integration:


The answer is:
