To evaluate the integral \( \int_{\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{3 \pi}{2}} 6 \sin ^{2}(x) \cos (x) d x \) using u-substitution, let's set \( u = \sin(x) \). Consequently, the derivative \( du = \cos(x) dx \). The limits of integration change when substituted: - When \( x = \frac{\pi}{2} \), \( u = \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) = 1 \) - When \( x = \frac{3\pi}{2} \), \( u = \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{2}\right) = -1 \) This changes our integral to \( \int_{1}^{-1} 6u^2 du \). To keep the integral proper, we can reverse the limits, giving us a negative sign: \[ = -\int_{-1}^{1} 6u^2 du = 6 \int_{-1}^{1} u^2 du \] Now, compute \( \int_{-1}^{1} u^2 du \): \[ \int u^2 du = \frac{u^3}{3} \] Evaluating from -1 to 1: \[ = \left[\frac{(1)^3}{3} - \frac{(-1)^3}{3}\right] = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3} \] Plugging this back into our integral: \[ 6 \cdot \frac{2}{3} = 4 \] Therefore, the value of the integral is: \[ \int_{\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{3 \pi}{2}} 6 \sin ^{2}(x) \cos (x) d x = 4 \]
