Homework Statement
determine the Fourier Series for f(x)=cos3x
Homework Equations
f(x)=ao/2+(sum) an cos(nx)+ (sum) bncos(nx)
ao= (integral) f(x)dx (from -[tex]\pi[/tex] to[tex]\pi[/tex])
an= (integral) f(x)cos(nx)dx (from -[tex]\pi[/tex] to[tex]\pi[/tex])
bn= (integral) f(x)sin(nx)dx (from -[tex]\pi[/tex] to[tex]\pi[/tex])
The Attempt at a Solution
i worked out that ao and an are both zero, which is fine. however when i go to work out bn i get answers that are divided by (n-1) and (n-3) which means that when i try and find b1 and b3 I'm dividing by zero. i don't know what to do now! can this function be made into a Fourier Series?
