Show that \(\int_{0}^{\infty} \sin \theta \mathrm{d} \theta\) and \(\int_{0}^{\infty} \cos \theta \mathrm{d} \theta\) are indeterminate.
(a) Make a conjecture about the value of the limit \(\lim _{k \rightarrow 0} \int_{1}^{b} t^{k-1} d t(b>0)\) (b) Check your conjecture by evaluating the integral and finding the limit. [Hint: Interpret the limit as the definition of the derivative of an exponential function]
Given that \(\int_{0}^{1} \frac{\ln x}{(1+x) \sqrt{x}} d x\) is a convergent improper integral, prove that \(\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\ln x d x}{(1+x) \sqrt{x}}=0\).
Prove that \(\int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \cos ^{\mathrm{m}} \mathrm{x} \sin ^{\mathrm{m}} \mathrm{xd} \mathrm{x}=2^{-\mathrm{m}} \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \cos ^{\mathrm{m}} \mathrm{xdx} .\)
Show that \(\int_{0}^{1} \frac{\ell n\left(1-a^{2} x^{2}\right)}{x^{2} \sqrt{\left(1-x^{2}\right)}} d x\) \(=\pi\left[\sqrt{1-a^{2}}-1\right],\left(a^{2}<1\right)\)
