TopicIndefinite & Definite Integrals
TypeTrigonometric integration
DifficultyModerate -0.8 This is a straightforward integration question requiring only basic knowledge of integrating constants and cosine functions, with a simple substitution for the coefficient. The limits are clean and the 'exact value' requirement is routine for this topic. Below average difficulty as it's purely procedural with no problem-solving element.
Spec1.08c Integrate e^(kx), 1/x, sin(kx), cos(kx)

Find the exact value of \(\int_0^{\frac{1}{4}\pi} (1 + \cos \frac{1}{2}x) dx\). [3]

AnswerMarks Guidance
Answer: \(x + 2\sin\frac{1}{2}x\)Marks: B1 Guidance: Must be exact, not \(2/\sqrt{2}\); isw from correct answer seen
