Dear Everyone,

I do not know how to begin with the following problem:Suppose that $f$ is $2\pi$-periodic and let $a$ be a fixed real number. Define $F(x)=\int_{a}^{x} f(t)dt$, for all $x$ .
Show that $F$ is $2\pi$-periodic if and only if $\int_{0}^{2\pi}f(t)dt=0$.
Thanks,
Cbarker1

if and only if [math]\int_0^{2 \pi}f(t)~dt[/math] is what?
