Example 9-20 Find the average value of the sine function from 0 to . p Solution: The average value of the function uses the definition of the average
value of a function over a range (see Chapter 7, Integration). The integration is over the first half-cycle of the sine function as shown in Fig. 8-22. The average value of the function x ⫽ sin u from 0 to is p

by a loudspeaker is P⫽P o sin 2 v t
Fig. 8-23
where P o is the peak power and is v
a constant with the units of recipro- cal time. What is the average power in terms of the peak power?
Solution: Start by graphing sin vt (Fig. 8-24). The v t is not important to the graph. When v t has gone from 0 to 2 , the sine p
function has gone through one cycle.

Now graph the sin 2 curve. Look first at the range from 0 to . The p sin 2 curve starts at zero when v t⫽ 0 , and goes to 1 when v t⫽p /2 , and then back to zero again when v t⫽p .
Trigonometric Functions
The sin 2 curve, however, has a different shape from the sin curve. The unique shape of the sin 2 curve is due to the fact that when a number less than 1 is squared, the result is smaller [ 0.5 2 ⫽ 0.25 ]. The smaller the number, the smaller
the result on squaring [ 0.9 2 ⫽ 0.81 but 0.3 2 ⫽ 0.09 ]. When the sin curve is negative, the sin 2 curve is positive (see Fig. 8-24). The
sin 2 curve is periodic in so the average value of the p sin 2 curve is the average value between 0 and . p
The average value of this sin 2 -type function follows the definition of the aver- age value of the function.

The

The average power for the loudspeaker is one-half the peak power.
Example 8-22 What is the area bounded by y 1 ⫽ cos x , y 2 ⫽ sin x , and x⫽ 0 ? Solution: The sine and cosine functions are
shown in Fig. 8-25. The integral of the area
between the curves is in the x-direction and y has form
2 = sin x 1( cos x ⫺ sin x)dx
. The integral is
from x⫽ 0 to the intersection point of the
two curves. At this point y = cos x 1 or sin x ⫽ cos x sin x ⫽ cos x 1 or tan x ⫽ 1 x
From the graph of tan x , tan x ⫽ 1 when
