Answer

$$ -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\pi}{4}$$

Work Step by Step

Let $x=\theta^{2} \ \Rightarrow dx=2 \theta d \theta $. Thus, \begin{align*} \int_{\sqrt{\pi / 2}}^{\sqrt{\pi}} \theta^{3} \cos \left(\theta^{2}\right) d \theta &=\int_{\sqrt{\pi / 2}}^{\sqrt{\pi}} \theta^{2} \cos \left(\theta^{2}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2}(2 \theta d \theta)\\ &=\frac{1}{2} \int_{\pi / 2}^{\pi} x \cos x d x \end{align*} Let \begin{align*} u&=x\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ dv=\cos x dx\\ u&= dx\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ v=\sin x \end{align*} Then \begin{align*} \frac{1}{2} \int_{\pi / 2}^{\pi} x \cos x d x &=\frac{1}{2}\left([x \sin x]_{\pi / 2}^{\pi}-\int_{\pi / 2}^{\pi} \sin x d x\right)\\ &=\frac{1}{2}[x \sin x+\cos x]\bigg|_{\pi / 2}^{\pi} \\ &=\frac{1}{2}(\pi \sin \pi+\cos \pi)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{\pi}{2} \sin \frac{\pi}{2}+\cos \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\\ &= -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\pi}{4} \end{align*}
