Evaluate \(\int_0^{{\pi}} x \sin x\,\d x\) and \(\int_0^{{\pi}} x \cos x\,\d x\;\). The function \(\f\) satisfies the equation \begin{equation} \f(t)=t + \int_0^{{\pi}} \f(x)\sin(x+t)\,\d x\;. \tag{\(*\)} \end{equation} Show that \[ \f(t)=t + A\sin t + B\cos t\;, \] where \(A= \int_0^{{\pi}}\,\f(x)\cos x\,\d x\;\) and \(B= \int_0^{{\pi}}\,\f(x)\sin x\,\d x\;\). Find \(A\) and \(B\) by substituting for \(\f(t)\) and \(\f(x)\) in \((*)\) and equating coefficients of \(\sin t\) and \(\cos t\,\).


Solution: \begin{align*} && I &= \int_0^\pi x \sin x \d x \\ &&&= \left [ -x \cos x \right]_0^\pi + \int_0^{\pi} \cos x \d x \\ &&&= \pi \\ \\ && J &= \int_0^\pi x \cos x \d x \\ &&&= \left [ x \sin x \right]_0^\pi - \int_0^\pi \sin x \d x \\ &&&= -2 \end{align*} \begin{align*} && f(t) &= t + \int_0^\pi f(x) \sin (x+t) \d x \\ &&&= t + \int_0^\pi f(x) \left ( \sin t \cos x + \cos t \sin x \right) \d x \\ &&&= t + \sin t \int_0^{\pi} f(x) \cos x \d x + \cos t \int_0^{\pi} f(x) \sin x \d x \\ \\ && A &= \int_0^\pi (x + A \sin x + B \cos x) \cos x \d x \\ &&&= -2+ \frac{\pi}{2} B \\ && B &= \int_0^{\pi} (x + A \sin x + B \cos x ) \sin x \d x \\ &&&= \pi + \frac{\pi}{2} A \\ \Rightarrow && (A,B) &= (-2,0) \end{align*}
