    If \[f(x)\] is an even function, then what is \[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi }{f(\cos x)dx}\] equal to?

    A) 0

    B) \[\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{2}}{f(\cos x)dx}\]

    C) \[2\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{2}}{f(\cos x)dx}\]

    D) 1

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Since \[f(x)\] is an even function therefore \[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi }{f(x)dx=2\int\limits_{0}^{\pi /2}{f(x)dx}}\] Hence, \[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi }{f(\cos x)dx=2\int\limits_{0}^{\pi /2}{f(\cos x)dx}}\]
