Solution: \begin{align*} && I &= \int_0^{2 \pi} e^{x} \cos m x \d x \\ &&&= \left [e^x \cos m x \right]_0^{2 \pi}-\int_0^{2 \pi} e^x m (-\sin mx) \d x\\ &&&= e^{2\pi}-1 + m\int_0^{2\pi}e^x \sin m x \d x \\ &&&= e^{2\pi}-1 + m\left [e^x \sin m x \right]_0^{2\pi} - m \int_0^{2\pi} e^x m \cos x \d x \\ &&&= e^{2\pi}-1+0 - m^2 I\\ \Rightarrow && (m^2+1)I &= e^{2\pi}-1 \\ \Rightarrow && I &= \frac{1}{m^2+1} (e^{2\pi}-1) \end{align*}

1. \(\,\) \begin{align*} && \cos(A+B) + \cos(A-B) &= \cos A\cos B - \sin A \sin B + \cos A \cos B + \sin A \sin B \\ &&&= 2 \cos A \cos B \end{align*} Therefore \begin{align*} && I &= \int_0^{2\pi} e^x \cos x \cos 6x \d x \\ &&&= \int_0^{2\pi} e^x \frac12\left (\cos 7x + \cos 5x \right) \d x\\ &&&= \left ( \frac{1}{2(1+7^2)} + \frac1{2(1+5^2)}\right)(e^{2\pi}-1) \\ &&&= \left (\frac{1}{100}+\frac{1}{52} \right) (e^{2\pi}-1) \\ &&&= \frac{19}{650}(e^{2\pi}-1) \end{align*}

Solution:

1. \(\,\) \begin{align*} && y & = a^{\sin(\pi e^x)} \\ \Rightarrow && \frac{\d y}{\d x} &= a^{\sin(\pi e^x)} \cdot ( \ln a) \cdot (\cos (\pi e^x)) \cdot \pi e^x \\ \frac{\d y}{\d x} = 0: && 0 &= \cos(\pi e^x) \\ \Rightarrow && \pi e^x &= \left ( \frac{2n+1}{2} \right) \pi \\ \Rightarrow && x &= \ln \left ( \frac{2n+1}{2} \right) \\ && y &= a^{(-1)^n} \\ &&(x,y) &= \left (\ln \left ( \frac{2n+1}{2} \right), a^{(-1)^n} \right) \end{align*}
2. \(\,\) \begin{align*} && y &= a^{\sin(\pi e^x)} \\ &&&= e^{\ln a \cdot \sin(\pi e^x)} \\ &&&\approx e^{\ln a \cdot \sin(\pi (1+x))} \\ &&&\approx e^{-\ln a \cdot \sin(\pi x)} \\ &&&\approx e^{-\ln a \cdot \pi x} \\ &&&\approx 1-( \pi\ln a) x \end{align*}

4. The \(k\)th maxima is at \(\ln \left ( \frac{4(k-1)+1}{2}\right)\) and \(a\) ,and the \((k+1)\)th is at \(\ln \left ( \frac{4k+1}{2}\right)\). They have a minima between at \(\ln \left ( \frac{4k-3}{2}\right)\). \begin{align*} && \text{Area} &\approx \frac12 \left (\ln \left ( \frac{4k-1}{2}\right)- \ln \left ( \frac{4k-3}{2}\right)\right) \left ( a + \frac1a \right) + \frac12 \left ( \ln \left ( \frac{4k+1}{2}\right)-\ln \left ( \frac{4k-1}{2}\right)\right) \left ( a + \frac1a \right) \\ &&&= \frac{a^2+1}{2a} \ln \left (\frac{4k+1}{4k-3} \right) \\ &&&= \frac{a^2+1}{2a} \ln \left (1 + \frac{4}{4k-3} \right) \\ &&&= \frac{a^2+1}{2a} \ln \left (1 + \frac{1}{k-\tfrac34} \right) \\ &&&= \frac{a^2+1}{2a} \ln \left (1 + (k-\tfrac34)^{-1} \right) \\ \end{align*}

Solution:

1. Let \(\displaystyle y= \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n x^n\,\) then \begin{align*} y' &= \frac{\d}{\d x} \l \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n x^n \r \\ &= \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{\d}{\d x} \l a_n x^n \r \\ &= \sum_{n=0}^\infty n a_n x^{n-1} \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^\infty n a_n x^{n-1} \\ \\ y'' &= \frac{\d}{\d x} \l\sum_{n=1}^\infty n a_n x^{n-1} \r \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\d}{\d x} \l n a_n x^{n-1} \r \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^\infty n(n-1) a_n x^{n-2} \\ &= \sum_{n=2}^\infty n(n-1) a_n x^{n-2} \\ \\ y &= a_0 + a_1 x+ a_2x^2 + a_3x^3 + \cdots \\ y'&= a_1 + 2a_2x+3a_3x^2 + \cdots \\ y'' &= 2a_2 + 6a_3x + \cdots \end{align*}
2. \begin{align*} && 0 &= xy''-y'+4x^3y \\ &&&= x\sum_{n=2}^\infty n(n-1) a_n x^{n-2} - \sum_{n=1}^\infty n a_n x^{n-1} + 4x^3 \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n x^n \\ &&&= \sum_{n=2}^\infty n(n-1) a_n x^{n-1} - \sum_{n=1}^\infty n a_n x^{n-1} + \sum_{n=0}^\infty 4a_n x^{n+3} \\ &&&= \sum_{n=2}^\infty n(n-1) a_n x^{n-1} - \sum_{n=1}^\infty n a_n x^{n-1} + \sum_{n=4}^\infty 4a_{n-4} x^{n-1} \\ &&&= \sum_{n=4}^{\infty} \l n(n-1) a_n- n a_n +4a_{n-4} \r x^{n-1} + 2a_2x + 6a_3x^2-a_1-2a_2x-3a_3x^2 \\ &&&= \sum_{n=4}^{\infty} \l n(n-2) a_n +4a_{n-4} \r x^{n-1}+ 3a_3x^2-a_1 \\ \end{align*} Therefore since all coefficients are \(0\), \(a_1 = 0\), \(a_3 = 0\) and \(\displaystyle a_n = -\frac{4}{n(n-2)}a_{n-4}\). If \(a_0 = 1, a_2 = 0\), and since \(a_1 = 0, a_3 = 0\) the only values which will take non-zero value are \(a_{4k}\). We can compute these values as: \(a_{4k} = -\frac{4}{(4k)(4k-2)} a_{4k-4} = \frac{1}{2k(2k-1)}a_{4k-r}\) so \(a_{4k} = \frac{(-1)^k}{(2k)!}\), which are precisely the coefficients in the expansion \(\cos x^2\). If \(a_0 = 0, a_2 = 1\) then since \(a_1 = 0, a_3 = 0\) the only values which take non-zero values are \(a_{4k+2}\) we can compute these values as: \(a_{4k+2} = -\frac{4}{(4k+2)(4k)}a_{4k-2} = -\frac{1}{(2k+1)2k}a_{4k-2}\) so we can see that \(a_{4k+2}= \frac{(-1)^k}{(2k+1)!}\) precisely the coefficients of \(\sin x^2\)

Solution:

1. \begin{align*} \mathcal{L}\{e^{-bt}f(t)\}(s) &= \int_0^{\infty}e^{-st}\{ e^{-bt}f(t) \} \d t \\ &= \int_0^{\infty} e^{-(s+b)t}f(t) \d t \\ &= F(s+b) \end{align*}
2. \begin{align*} \mathcal{L}\{f(at)\}(s) &= \int_0^{\infty} e^{-st}f(at) \d t \\ &= \int_{u=0}^{\infty}e^{-s \frac{u}{a}} f\left(a \tfrac{u}{a}\right)\frac{1}{a} \d u \\ &= \int_0^{\infty}e^{-su/a}f(u) a^{-1} \d u \\ &= a^{-1} \int_0^{\infty} e^{-(s/a)u}f(u) \d u \\ &= a^{-1} F\left (\frac{s}{a} \right) \end{align*}
3. \begin{align*} \mathcal{L}\{f'(t)\}(s) &= \int_0^{\infty} e^{-st}f'(t) \d t \\ &= \left [e^{-st} f(t) \right]_0^{\infty} - \int_0^{\infty} -s e^{-st} f(t) \d t\\ &= -f(0)+sF(s) \\ &= sF(s) - f(0) \end{align*}
4. Since \(f''(t) = -f(t)\) we must have: \begin{align*} && -\mathcal{L}(f)&= \mathcal{L}(f'') \\ &&&= s\mathcal{L}(f') -f'(0) \\ &&&= s(s\mathcal{L}(f)-f(0)) - f'(0) \\ &&&= s^2\mathcal{L}(f) - 1 \\ \Rightarrow && (1+s^2) \mathcal{L}(f) &= 1 \\ \Rightarrow && F(s) &= \frac{1}{1+s^2} \end{align*}

Solution:

1. \(X = \cos \theta\) \(\theta \sim U(0, 2\pi)\). Noting that \(\mathbb{P}(X \geq t ) = \frac{2}{2\pi}\cos^{-1} t\) so \(f_X(t) = \frac{1}{\pi} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\) \begin{align*} && \E[X] &= 0 \tag{by symmetry} \\ && \E[X^2] &= \int_0^{2\pi} \cos^2 \theta \frac{1}{2 \pi} \d \theta \\ &&&= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2\pi \cdot \frac{1}{2\pi} \\ &&&= \frac12 \\ \Rightarrow & &\var[X] &= \frac12 \\ \\ && \E[XY] &= \int_0^{2\pi} \cos \theta \sin \theta \frac{1}{2 \pi} \d \theta \\ &&&= \frac{1}{4\pi} \int_0^{2\pi} \sin 2\theta \d \theta \\ &&& =0 = \E[X]\E[Y] \end{align*} But note that clearly \(X\) and \(Y\) are not independent, since given \(X\) there are only two possible values of \(Y\).
2. \(\,\) \begin{align*} && \E \left [ XY \right] &= \E \left [ \left ( \frac1n \sum_{i=1}^n X_i \right)\left ( \frac1n \sum_{i=1}^n Y_i\right) \right] \\ &&&= \frac{1}{n^2} \sum_{i=1}^n \sum_{j=1}^n \E [X_i Y_j] \\ &&&= 0 = \E[X] \E[Y] \end{align*} Therefore \(X\) and \(Y\) are uncorrelated. Note that \(\E[X_i] = 0, \var[X_i] = \frac12\) so we can apply the central limit theorem to see that \(X \approx N(0, \frac{1}{2n})\), in particular \begin{align*} && 0.95 &\approx \mathbb{P}(|Z| < 2) \\ &&&= \mathbb{P} \left ( \Big |\frac{X}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{2n}}} \Big | < 2 \right ) \\ &&&= \mathbb{P}\left (|X| < \sqrt{\frac{2}{n}} \right) \end{align*}

   \begin{align*} && f(x) &= \exp\left (\tfrac23\sin x \right) \\ && f'(x) &= \exp\left (\tfrac23\sin x \right) \cdot \tfrac23 \cos x \\ && f''(x) &= \left ( \exp\left (\tfrac23\sin x \right) \cdot \tfrac23\right) \left ( \tfrac23 \cos^2 x - \sin x \right) \end{align*} Therefore \(f(x)\) is convex when \(\frac23 \cos^2 x \geq \sin x\). Note that we can find the equality points when \begin{align*} && \sin x &= \frac23 \cos^2 x \\ &&&= \frac23 (1- \sin^2 x) \\ \Rightarrow && 0 &= 2\sin^2 x + 3 \sin x - 2 \\ &&&= (2 \sin x -1) (\sin x+2) \end{align*} ie \(\sin x = \frac12 \Rightarrow x = \frac{\pi}{6}, \frac{5\pi}{6}\). Therefore \(f\) is convex on \([0, \frac{\pi}{6}] \cup [\frac{5\pi}{6}, 2\pi]\)
2. Suppose \(g(x) = \exp \left ( -k \tan x \right)\) then \begin{align*} && g'(x) &= \exp \left ( -k \tan x \right) \cdot (-k \sec^2 x ) \\ && g''(x) &= \left ( -k \exp \left ( -k \tan x \right) \right) \left ( -k\sec^4 x + 2 \sec x \cdot \sec x \tan x\right) \\ &&&= -k \exp \left ( -k \tan x \right) \sec^4 x \left ( -k + 2\sin x \cos x \right) \\ &&&= -k \exp \left ( -k \tan x \right) \sec^4 x \left ( -k + \sin 2x \right) \\ \end{align*} If \(0 < \alpha < \frac{\pi}{4}\) then \(k > 0\) so \(g\) is convex if \(-k + \sin 2x < 0\), ie \(\sin 2x < \sin 2\alpha\), ie on \((0, \alpha)\) and \((\frac{\pi}{2} - \alpha, \frac{\pi}{2})\)

Solution: \begin{align*} && I &= \int_0^{\frac{1}{2}\pi} \frac{\sin 2x}{1+\sin^2x} \d x \\ &&&= \int_0^{\frac{1}{2}\pi} \frac{2 \sin x \cos x}{1+\sin^2x} \d x \\ &&&= \left [\ln (1 + \sin^2 x) \right]_0^{\pi/2} \\ &&&= \ln 2 \\ \\ && J &= \int_0^{\frac{1}{2}\pi} \frac{\sin x}{1+\sin^2x} \d x \\ &&&= \int_0^{\frac{1}{2}\pi} \frac{\sin x}{2-\cos^2x} \d x \\ &&&= \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}\int_0^{\frac{1}{2}\pi} \left ( \frac{\sin x}{\sqrt{2}-\cos x}+ \frac{\sin x}{\sqrt{2}+\cos x} \right) \d x \\ &&&= \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \left [\ln (\sqrt{2}-\cos x) - \ln (\sqrt{2}+\cos x) \right]_0^{\pi/2} \\ &&&= \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \left (-\ln(\sqrt{2}-1)+\ln(\sqrt{2}+1) \right) \\ &&&= \frac1{2\sqrt{2}} \ln \left (\frac{\sqrt{2}+1}{\sqrt{2}-1} \right)\\ &&&= \frac1{\sqrt{2}} \ln (\sqrt{2}+1) \end{align*} \begin{align*} && (1+\sqrt{2})^5 + (1-\sqrt{2})^5 &= 2(1+10\cdot2+5\cdot2^2) \\ &&&= 82 \\ && |(1-\sqrt{2})^5| & < 1 \\ && (1+\sqrt{2})^5 &< 83 < 99 \\ \\ && 1.4^2 &= 1.96 \\ &&&< 2 \\ \Rightarrow && 1.4 &<\sqrt{2} \\ \\ \Rightarrow && 2^{\sqrt{2}} &> 2^{1.4} \\ &&&=2^{7/5} \\ &&&= {128}^{1/5} \\ &&&>99^{1/5} \\ &&&>1+\sqrt{2} \end{align*} \begin{align*} && \ln 2 & > \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \ln(\sqrt{2}+1) \\ \Leftrightarrow && \sqrt{2} \ln 2 &> \ln(\sqrt{2}+1) \\ \Leftrightarrow && 2^{\sqrt{2}} &> 1+\sqrt{2} \end{align*} which we have already shown, so the first integral is larger.

Solution: \begin{align*} && \cos^4 \theta - \sin^4 \theta &= (\cos^2 \theta - \sin^2 \theta)(\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta) \\ &&&= \cos^2 \theta - \sin^2 \theta \\ &&&= \cos 2 \theta \\ \\ && 1&= (\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta)^2 \\ &&&= \cos^4 \theta + \sin^4 \theta + 2 \sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta \\ &&&= \cos^4 \theta + \sin^4 \theta + \frac12 ( \sin^2 2 \theta) \\ \Rightarrow && \cos^4 \theta + \sin^4 \theta &= 1 - \tfrac12 \sin^2 2 \theta \end{align*} \begin{align*} && I &= \int_{0}^{\pi/2} \cos^4 \theta \d \theta \\ && J &= \int_0^{\pi/2} \sin^4 \theta \d \theta \\ && I-J &= \int_0^{\pi/2} \cos 2 \theta \d \theta = 0 \\ && I+J &= \int_0^{\pi/2} (1- \frac12 \sin^2 2 \theta) \d \theta \\ &&&= \frac{\pi}{2} - \frac14 \int_0^{\pi} \sin^2 \theta \d \theta \\ &&&= \frac{\pi}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8} \\ &&&= \frac{3\pi}{8} \\ \Rightarrow && I=J &= \frac{3\pi}{16} \end{align*} \begin{align*} && \cos^6 \theta + \sin^6 \theta &= (\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta)(\cos^4 \theta - \cos^2 \theta \sin^2 \theta + \sin^4 \theta) \\ &&&= 1-\tfrac12 \sin^2 2\theta - \tfrac14 \sin^2 2 \theta \\ &&&= 1 - \tfrac34 \sin^2 2 \theta \\ %&& \cos^6 \theta - \sin^6 \theta &= (\cos^2 \theta - \sin^2 \theta)(\cos^4 \theta + \cos^2 \theta \sin^2 \theta + \sin^4 \theta) \\ %&&&= \cos 2 \theta (1 - \tfrac12 \sin^2 2 \theta + \tfrac14 \sin^2 2 \theta) \\ %&&&= \cos 2 \theta (1 - \tfrac14 \sin^2 2 \theta) \\ \end{align*} \begin{align*} && I &= \int_{0}^{\pi/2} \cos^6 \theta \d \theta \\ && J &= \int_0^{\pi/2} \sin^6 \theta \d \theta \\ && I-J &= 0 \\ && I+J &= \int_0^{\pi/2} (1 - \tfrac34 \sin^2 2 \theta) \d \theta \\ &&&= \frac{\pi}{2} - \frac{3\pi}{16} = \frac{5\pi}{16} \\ \Rightarrow && I = J &= \frac{5\pi}{32} \end{align*}

Solution: \begin{align*} && f(x) &= \sin x \\ \Rightarrow && f''(x) &= -\sin x \end{align*} which is clearly negative on \((0,\pi)\) since \(\sin\) is positive on this interval. \begin{align*} && f(x) &= \ln x \\ \Rightarrow && f''(x) &= -1/x^2 \end{align*} which is clearly negative for \(x > 0\)

1. Since \(A,B,C\) are angles in a triangle, we must have \(0 < A,B,C< \pi\) and so we can apply Jensen with \(f = \sin\) to obtain: \begin{align*} &&\frac13( \sin A + \sin B + \sin C) &\leq \sin \left ( \frac{A+B+C}{3}\right) \\ &&&= \sin \frac{\pi}{3} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}2 \\ \Rightarrow && \sin A + \sin B + \sin C &\leq\frac{3\sqrt{3}}2 \end{align*}
2. Suppose \(f(x) = \ln x\), then applying Jensen on the positive numbers \(t_1, \ldots, t_n\) we obtain \begin{align*} && \frac1n \left ( \sum_{i=1}^n \ln t_n \right) &\leq \ln \left ( \frac1n\sum_{i=1}^n t_n \right) \\ \Rightarrow && \frac1n \ln\left (\prod_{i=1} t_n\right)&\leq \ln \left ( \frac1n\sum_{i=1}^n t_n \right) \\ \Rightarrow && \ln\left (\left (\prod_{i=1} t_n\right)^{1/n}\right)&\leq \ln \left ( \frac1n\sum_{i=1}^n t_n \right) \\ \Rightarrow && \left (\prod_{i=1} t_n\right)^{1/n}&\leq\frac1n\sum_{i=1}^n t_n \\ \Rightarrow && \sqrt[n]{t_1t_2 \cdots t_n}&\leq\frac1n(t_1 + t_2 + \cdots + t_n) \tag{AM-GM}\\ \end{align*}
   1. Applying AM-GM with \(t_1 = x^4, t_2 = y^4, t_3 = z^4, t_4 = 2^4\) we have \begin{align*} && \frac{x^4+y^4+z^4+16}{4} & \geq \sqrt[4]{x^4y^4z^42^4} \\ \Rightarrow && x^4+y^4+z^4+16 &\geq 8xyz \end{align*}
   2. Applying AM-GM with \(t_1 = x^5, t_2 = y^5, t_3 = z^5, t_4 = 1^5, t_5 = 1^5\) we have \begin{align*} && \frac{x^5+y^5+z^5+1+1}{5} & \geq \sqrt[5]{x^5y^5z^5} \\ \Rightarrow && x^5+y^5+z^5+2 &\geq 5xyz \\ \Rightarrow && x^5+y^5+z^5 - 5xyz &\geq -2 \end{align*} Therefore the minimum is \(-2\)

Solution:

1. \begin{align*} && t(x) &= \int_0^x \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u \\ u = v^{-1}, \d u = -v^{-2} \d v&&&= \int_{v = \infty}^{v = 1/x} \frac{1}{1+v^{-2}} \frac{-1}{v^2} \d v \\ &&&= \int_{1/x}^\infty \frac{1}{1+v^2} \d v \\ \\ \Rightarrow && t(x) + t(1/x) &= \int_0^x \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u + \int_0^{1/x} \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u \\ &&&= \int_{1/x}^{\infty} \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u + \int_0^{1/x} \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u \\ &&&= \int_0^{\infty} \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u \\ &&&= \frac12 p \\ \\ \Rightarrow && t(1) +t(1/1) = 2t(1) &= \frac12 p \end{align*}
2. \(\,\) \begin{align*} && y &= \frac{u}{\sqrt{1+u^2}} \\ \Rightarrow && y^2 &= \frac{u^2}{1+u^2} \\ &&&= 1-\frac{1}{1+u^2} \\ \Rightarrow && 1+u^2 &= \frac{1}{1-y^2} \\ \Rightarrow && u &= \frac{y}{\sqrt{1-y^2}} \\ \\ && \frac{\d u}{\d y} &= \frac{\sqrt{1-y^2} + y^2(1-y^2)^{-1/2}}{1-y^2} \\ &&&= \frac{1}{(1-y^2)^{3/2}} \\ \\ && t(x) &= \int_0^x \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u \\ &&&= \int_0^{y = x/\sqrt{1+x^2}} \frac{1}{1 + \frac{y^2}{1-y^2}} \frac{1}{(1-y^2)^{3/2}} \d y \\ &&&= \int_0^{x/\sqrt{1+x^2}} \frac{1-y^2}{(1-y^2)^{3/2}} \d y \\ &&&= \int_0^{x/\sqrt{1+x^2}} \frac{1}{(1-y^2)^{1/2}} \d y \\ &&&= s\left ( \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \right) \\ \\ \Rightarrow && s\left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \right) &= t(1) = \frac14p \end{align*}
3. \(\,\) \begin{align*} && z &= \frac{u + \frac1{\sqrt{3}}}{1- \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} u}\\ \Rightarrow && z - \frac{z}{\sqrt{3}}u &= u + \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \\ \Rightarrow && u &= \frac{z-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1 + \frac{z}{\sqrt{3}}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow && \frac{\d u}{\d z} &= \frac{\sqrt{3}(\sqrt{3}+z ) -(\sqrt{3}z-1)}{\left (\sqrt{3}+z \right)^2} \\ &&&= \frac{4}{(\sqrt{3}+z)^2} \\ \\ \Rightarrow && t \left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \right) &= \int_0^{1/\sqrt{3}} \frac{1}{1+u^2} \d u \\ &&&= \int_{z=1/\sqrt{3}}^{z=\sqrt{3}} \frac{1}{1 + \left ( \frac{\sqrt{3}z-1}{\sqrt{3}+z}\right)^2} \frac{4}{(\sqrt{3}+z)^2} \d z\\ &&&= \int_{1/\sqrt{3}}^{\sqrt{3}} \frac{4}{(\sqrt{3}+z)^2+(\sqrt{3}z-1)^2} \d z \\ &&&= \int_{1/\sqrt{3}}^{\sqrt{3}} \frac{4}{4+4z^2} \d z \\ &&&= \int_{1/\sqrt{3}}^{\sqrt{3}} \frac{1}{1+z^2} \d z \end{align*} Notice that \(t(1/\sqrt{3})+t(\sqrt{3}) = \frac12p\) and also notice that \(t(1/\sqrt{3}) + t(1/\sqrt{3}) =t(\sqrt{3})\) so \(3t(1/\sqrt{3}) = \frac12p\)

   Notice that they are equal at \(1\) when \(x = \pi/2\), but this is a local minimum for \(\csc x\) whereas \(2x/\pi\) is increasing so there is a second intersection. Notice that \(\csc x = \frac{2x}{\pi} \Leftrightarrow x \sin x = \frac{\pi}{2}\) therefore our intersections are also the roots of \(x \sin x = \frac{\pi}{2}\) and the larger one is greater than \(\pi/2\) \begin{align*} && I &= \int_{\pi/2}^{\pi} \Bigl| x \sin x - \frac{\pi}{2} \Bigr| \d x \\ &&&= \int_{\pi/2}^{\alpha} \left ( x \sin x - \frac{\pi}{2} \right )\d x +\int_{\alpha}^{\pi} \left ( \frac{\pi}{2} -x \sin x \right) \d x \\ &&&= \left ( \pi - 2\alpha + \frac{\pi}{2}\right) \frac{\pi}{2} + \int_{\pi/2}^{\alpha} x \sin x\d x -\int_{\alpha}^{\pi} x \sin x \d x \\ &&&= \frac{3\pi^2}{4} - \alpha \pi + \left [-x \cos x \right]_{\pi/2}^{\alpha}+\left[x \cos x \right]_{\alpha}^{\pi} + \int_{\pi/2}^{\alpha} \cos x \d x - \int_{\alpha}^{\pi} \cos x \d x \\ &&&= \frac{3\pi^2}{4} - \alpha \pi -\alpha \cos \alpha -\pi -\alpha \cos \alpha+ \sin \alpha - 1+\sin \alpha \\ &&&= 2\sin \alpha + \frac{3\pi^2}{4} - \alpha \pi - 2\alpha \cos \alpha - 1 \end{align*}
