Answer

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

Work Step by Step

Let $u$=x, $dv+\cos(\pi x) \ dx$. Then $du=1$ and $v=\frac{1}{\pi}\sin (\pi x)$. Apply integration by parts to find the indefinite integral. $$\int x\cos (\pi x) \ dx= \frac{x}{\pi} \sin(\pi x)- \int \frac{1}{\pi} \sin(\pi x) \ dx$$ $$=\frac{x}{\pi} \sin(\pi x) +\frac{1}{\pi ^2} \cos (\pi x) +C$$ Evaluate for $x=0, \frac {1}{2}$ $$=\frac{x}{\pi} \sin(\pi x) +\frac{1}{\pi ^2} \cos (\pi x) \Big]^\frac{1}{2}_0 =\frac{1}{2\pi} - \frac{1}{\pi^2}$$
