integration - Find limlimitsxto+inftyUn where Un=frac1nintlimitsn0sin2(t)dt



Writing n0sin2(t)dt=πE(nπ)0sin2(t)dt+nπE(nπ)sin2(t)dt
Where E(x) designates the floor function of x



Use the squeeze theorem to find lim




I tried to evaluate the Integral but it's specifically asked to use \pi E(\frac{n}{\pi})


Answer



As we have:



\sin^2(t)=\frac12(1-\cos(2t))



It is clear that the function being integrated has a periodicity of \pi. Hence every integral through a whole \pi period will have the same value. So, we have that:



\int\limits_0^\pi\sin^2(t)dt=\int\limits_0^\pi\frac12(1-\cos(2t))dt=\frac\pi2




Then, if we break down the integration as the function is suggesting:



\int\limits_0^n\sin^2(t)dt=\int\limits_0^{\pi \lfloor\frac{n}{\pi}\rfloor}\sin^2(t)dt + \int\limits_{\pi \lfloor\frac{n}{\pi}\rfloor}^n\sin^2(t)dt=\frac\pi2 \lfloor\frac{n}\pi\rfloor + \int\limits_{\pi \lfloor\frac{n}{\pi}\rfloor}^n\sin^2(t)dt



Notice that the integrand is always positive, so we can easily find an lower and upper bound by excluding the left term or letting it complete another cycle, which means that:



\frac\pi2 \lfloor\frac{n}\pi\rfloor<\frac\pi2 \lfloor\frac{n}\pi\rfloor + \int\limits_{\pi \lfloor\frac{n}{\pi}\rfloor}^n\sin^2(t)dt<\frac\pi2 \lfloor\frac{n}\pi\rfloor+\frac\pi2



$$\frac1n \frac\pi2 \lfloor\frac{n}\pi\rfloor




So, if we let n \to \infty, as both sides of the inequality tend to 1/2, we have that



\lim_{n\to\infty}U_n=\frac12
