Answer

(a) $cos(x^2) \geq cos~x$ (b) $\int_{0}^{\pi/6}cos(x^2)~dx \geq \frac{1}{2}$

Work Step by Step

(a) On the interval $~~0 \leq x \leq 1$: $0 \leq x^2 \leq x$ $1 \geq cos(x^2) \geq cos~x$ (b) Note that $\frac{\pi}{6} \lt 1$ Therefore: $\int_{0}^{\pi/6}cos(x^2)~dx \geq \int_{0}^{\pi/6}cos~x~dx$ $\int_{0}^{\pi/6}cos(x^2)~dx \geq sin~x \vert_{0}^{\pi/6}$ $\int_{0}^{\pi/6}cos(x^2)~dx \geq sin~\frac{\pi}{6} -sin~0$ $\int_{0}^{\pi/6}cos(x^2)~dx \geq \frac{1}{2}$
