Convergence of Fourier Series for f(t) = 1 + t with Only Cosine Terms in [0,pi]

[malawi_glenn]

Homework Statement

Write f(t) = 1 + t as Fourier series, with only cosine terms in the interval [0,pi]

For which values of t does the series converge to f ?

The Attempt at a Solution

Expand f = 1+t as an even function about t=0; so it will be a zig-zag with non continuous points at -pi,0,pi, 2pi etc

the first part is simple, but the second; I was thinking that the Fourier series is converging to f, exept where f is not continous. So the answer is t \in ]0,\pi[

Is that correct?

Yes. In fact it converges to 1+pi/2 at 0 and pi which is not the same as f.
