Question
Answered step-by-step
Let $ I_n = \displaystyle \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \sin^n x dx $.(a) Show that $ I_{2n + 2} \le I_{2n + 1} \le I_{2n} $.(b) Use Exercise 50 to show that$$ \frac{I_{2n + 2}}{I_{2n}} = \frac{2n + 1}{2n + 2} $$(c) Use parts (a) and (b) to show that$$ \frac{2n + 1}{2n + 2} \le \frac{I_{2n + 1}}{I_{2n}} \le 1 $$and deduce that $ \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{I_{2n + 1}}{I_{2n}} = 1 $.(d) Use part (c) and Exercises 49 and 50 to show that$$ \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{2}{1} \cdot \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{6}{5} \cdot \frac{6}{7} \cdots \cdots \frac{2n}{2n - 1} \cdot \frac{2n}{2n + 1} = \frac{\pi}{2} $$This formula is usually written as an infinite product:$$ \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{2}{1} \cdot \frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{6}{5} \cdot \frac{6}{7} \cdots $$and is called the Wallis product.(e) We construct rectangles as follows. Start with a square of area 1 and attach rectangles of area 1 alternately beside or on top of the previous rectangle (see the figure). Find the limit of the ratios of width to height of these rectangles.

In mathematics, integration is one of the two main operations in calculus, with its inverse, differentiation, being the other. Given a function of a real variable, an antiderivative, integral, or integrand is the function's derivative, with respect to the variable of interest. The integrals of a function are the components of its antiderivative. The definite integral of a function from a to b is the area of the region in the xy-plane that lies between the graph of the function and the x-axis, above the x-axis, or below the x-axis. The indefinite integral of a function is an antiderivative of the function, and can be used to find the original function when given the derivative. The definite integral of a function is a single-valued function on a given interval. It can be computed by evaluating the definite integral of a function at every x in the domain of the function, then adding the results together.

The problem is that a m is equal to integral from 0 to pi over 2 sine x to n power. Dx is shown that i 2 n, plus 2 is smaller than i 2 n plus 1 is smaller than i to the reason is for a the reason is sine x is smaller than land greater than 0 point, so they have a sine 2 n plus 2 X is smaller than sine 2 n. Plus 1 x is smaller than sine 2 n x, so they have. I 2 plus 2, is smaller than i to plus 1 is smaller than i 2 in b is use exercise 50 to show that i 2 m plus 2 over i 2 n is equal to 2 n plus 1 over 2 plus 2 t in exercise 50. We half integral from 0 to pi over 2 sine x to x power dis equal to 1 over n integral from 0 to pi over 2 sine x to minus las power, dx so replace in by 2, n plus 2, and they have this result. For part c, ives part a part b to show that i 2 n plus 1 over 2, is greater than 2 n plus 1 over 2 plus 2 n smaller than 1 point. For this part, this is a director result from a, and for this part we can see, i 2 n plus 1. Over i, 2 n is greater than i 2 n plus 2 over i 2, by a and then by. This is just 2 n plus 1. Over 2 n plus 2 point and by square serum is limit of this. 1 is equal to 1 goes to infinity, and this is also 1 to the limit of this. 1 is equal to 1, but do need to prove the limit of this number is equal to pi over 2 point here for simplicity. We write this number as a a n witses an or i can write. This is a 2 n. So then, what angles infinity we need to prove. The limit of a 2 n is equal to pi over 2. By the result of an exercise 49 point we have, i 2 m, plus 1 is equal to 2 times 4 times 6 times times: 2 n over 3 times 5 times 7 times, 2 n plus 1, and i by exercise 50 and 49. We have a 2 n is equal to 1 times 3 times 5 times, dot, dot 2 m minus 1 over 2 times 4 times to the dod times 2 n times pi over 2. So we can find i 2 n plus 1 over in is just a 2 n times 2 over pi. Then this as a result of a limit and goes to infinity, i 2 n plus 1 over i i 2 n 2 n. This is equal to 1. So we have the limit of a 2 n is equal to p o 2 for the last part for e. Let'S look at some rectangles. We construct rectangles as follows: start with a square of ire 1 and attach rectangles of area 1 alternately beside on top of the previous rectangles, for example. This is 111 and third graph. Is this 1 just 1 kind of top things this 1 on 1? So this is 1 half and is the force along this from here we at rectangles here to this 1111 half- and here this is 2 over 3 and fifth 1 is like- and this is 1 half 1112 over 3. This is 8 over 3. So this this side, so this is 3 over 8. So what can the question is find the limit of the ratio of is to a height of these rectangles so for 1. The first 1 is the first 1 that reaches is over height is equal to 1. Second, 1, is over height is equal to 2. Over 1 point. Third, 1 is wise: over height is equal to 2 over 1 plus 1 half pint. This is equal to 2 over 3 over 2. So this 4 over 3 point. So we can write that this is 2 over 1 times 2 over 3 and the fourth 1 was over. Heit is equal to 8 over 3 over 3. Over 2 point. This is 16 o 9. So we can write that this is 2 over 1 times 2. Over 3 times 4 over 3 and the fifth is lost over height. This is 8 over 3 over 1 plus ne half plus 3 over 8 point, and you can check this is equal to 2 over 1 times 2 over 3 times 4 over 3 times 4. Over 5 point so just to compare this result with part d you can see. This is exactly the number of a 2 notely know that limit is equal to pi over 2 by the result of part b.
