5π6π4f(θ)dθ=5π6π4(θsin(θ)+2cot(7θ8))dθ=(1212)(5312+142π)+167×logsin65(35π6)sin4(7π4)

Explanation:

f(θ)=θsin(θ)+2cot(7θ8)

5π6π4f(θ)dθ=5π6π4(θsin(θ)+2cot(7θ8))dθ

Applying sum rule

5π6π4(θsin(θ)+2cot(7θ8))dθ=5π6π4θsin(θ)dθ+5π6π42cot(7θ8)dθ

5π6π4θsin(θ)dθ=5π6π4θ(sinθdθ)
Integrating by parts
u=θ
dudθ=1
du=dθ

dv=sinθdθ

dv=(sinθ)dθ
v=cosθ

udv=uvvdu

Substituting

θ(sinθdθ)=θcosθcosθdθ

θ(sinθdθ)=θcosθsinθ

5π6π4θsin(θ)dθ={θcosθsinθ}5π6π4

=5π6cos(5π6)(π4)cos(π4)(sin(5π6)sin(π4))

=5π6×(32)π4×12(1212)

Rearranging

5π6π4θsin(θ)dθ=(1212)(5312+142π)

5π6π42cot(7θ8)dθ=2(logsin(7θ8))7θ85π6π4

=167×{15π6logsin(7×5π6)1π4logsin(7×(π4)}

=167π×{65×logsin(35π6)4×logsin(7π4)}

=167π×{logsin65(35π6)logsin4(7π4)}

=167×logsin65(35π6)sin4(7π4)

5π6π42cot(7θ8)dθ=167×logsin65(35π6)sin4(7π4)

5π6π4θsin(θ)dθ+5π6π42cot(7θ8)dθ=(1212)(5312+142π)+167×logsin65(35π6)sin4(7π4)

5π6π4f(θ)dθ=5π6π4(θsin(θ)+2cot(7θ8))dθ=(1212)(5312+142π)+167×logsin65(35π6)sin4(7π4)
