Integration Help

1

$begingroup$

So I have to integrate $$fracsin^n xsin^n x + cos^n x$$ and am coding this in Mathematica with

 (((Sin^n)[x])/(((Sin^n)[x]) + ((Cos^n)[x]))) 

with the bounds $0$ and $pi/2,$ where $n$ takes on various integer values.

I programmed the problem so that $n=1$ then $n=2$, etc...but every time I try to get the output, I only get back the integration symbol. For example, if I program $n=2$ and then do the integration command- the output is

 (((Sin^2)[x])/(((Sin^2)[x]) + ((Cos^2)[x]))), 

but does not solve it. Anyone know how to help or fix this??

  Hello! It seems that you haven't included any code. Can you please include that here in the post? Based on your textual description my guess is that you are using (Sin^2)[x] when that syntax is incorrect, you should instead write it as Sin[x]^2

This works for me:

Table[Integrate[Sin[x]^n/(Sin[x]^n+Cos[x]^n),x,0,Pi/2],n,1,5]

And it gives the output Pi/4,Pi/4,Pi/4,Pi/4,Pi/4.

Perhaps you're writing your function in the wrong format Emma. The following works fine:

n = 2;
Integrate[Sin[x]^n/(Sin[x]^n + Cos[x]^n),x, 0, π/2]
