I am trying to show that ∫π/20sin(u+atanu)sinudu=π2
Can this be done via contour integration? I'm not really sure which contour to pick. I have tried substitutions like π/2−u but they haven't helped. I have tried differentiating with respect to a too. I got
I′(a)=∫π/20cos(u+atanu)cosudu
And I know
I(a)=∫π/20cos(u−acotu)cosudu
This came up on an undergraduate end of year exam so any solution shouldn't be too advanced.
Answer
I(a)=∫π/20sin(u+atanu)sinudu
by use this identitie
sin(x+y)=sinxcosy+cosxsiny
so
I(a)=∫π/20(cos(atanu)+sin(atanu)tanu)du
let
u=tan−1v
then
I(a)=∫∞0cos(av)+sin(av)v(1+v2)dv
differentiate both side with respect to a
I′(a)=∫∞0cos(av)−vsin(av)(1+v2)dv
both of
∫∞0cos(av)(1+v2)dv,,,,,,,,,∫∞0vsin(av)(1+v2)dv
can be shown here and here in real method
thats lead to I′(a)=0
⇒I(a) is const
I(a)=I(0)=π/2
