Apply Product-to-Sum Identity: To solve the integral of the product of two cosines, we can use the product-to-sum identities. The identity states that cos(A)cos(B)=21[cos(A−B)+cos(A+B)]. Let's apply this identity to our integral.
Rewrite Integral: Using the identity, we rewrite the integral as follows:∫cos(12r)cos(15r)dr=21∫[cos(12r−15r)+cos(12r+15r)]dr= 21∫[cos(−3r)+cos(27r)]drSince cosine is an even function, cos(−3r)=cos(3r). So, we can simplify further:= 21∫[cos(3r)+cos(27r)]dr
Integrate Each Term: Now we integrate each term separately: 21∫cos(3r)dr+21∫cos(27r)dr
Apply Integral Formula: The integral of cos(kr) with respect to r is k1sin(kr). Applying this to both terms, we get: 21×31sin(3r)+21×271sin(27r)+C where C is the constant of integration.
Simplify Coefficients: Simplify the coefficients: (61)sin(3r)+(541)sin(27r)+C
Combine Terms: Combine the terms to get the final answer: ∫cos(12r)cos(15r)dr=61sin(3r)+541sin(27r)+C
