Answer

$$ \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \cos 5 x \cos 2 x d x =-\frac{5}{21} $$

Work Step by Step

$$ \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \cos 5 x \cos 2 x d x $$ If we look at the section of n the Table of Integrals , we see that the closest entry is number 80 with $a=5 , b=2:$ $$ \begin{aligned} \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \cos 5 x \cos 2 x d x &=\left[\frac{\sin (5-2) x}{2(5-2)}+\frac{\sin (5+2) x}{2(5+2)}\right]_{0}^{\pi / 2} \quad\left[\begin{array}{l} a=5 \\ b=2 \end{array}\right] \\ &=\left[\frac{\sin 3 x}{6}+\frac{\sin 7 x}{14}\right]_{0}^{\pi / 2}\\ &=\left(-\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{14}\right)-0\\ &=\frac{-7-3}{42}\\ &=-\frac{5}{21} \end{aligned} $$
