How do you evaluate the definite integral #int sinxdx# from #[0, pi/2]#? Calculus Introduction to Integration Definite and indefinite integrals 1 Answer sjc Feb 14, 2017 #1# Explanation: #int_0^(pi/2)sinxdx# now #d/(dx)(cosx)=-sinx# so #intsinxdx=-cosxdx# #:.int_0^(pi/2)sinxdx=[-cos]_0^(pi/2)# #=-[cos]_0^(pi/2)=-{cancel((cos(pi/2)))^(=0)-cos0)}# #=- - 1=1# Answer link Related questions What is the difference between definite and indefinite integrals?
