Homework Statement



Hi all, i encounter this integral while i am trying to find the Fourier series of f(x)=ln(2*sin(x/2))


pi sin[(n+1/2)x] sin[(n-1/2)x]
∫ ------------- + ------------- dx n=1,2,3...
0 sin[(1/2)x] sin[(1/2)x]


Homework Equations



sin(A+B)=sinAcosB+sinBcosA
sin(2A)=2sinAcosA

The Attempt at a Solution



the answer seems to be 2*pi, but i still don't know how to work it out..
