Homework Statement
Noting that J_0(k) is an even function of k, use the result of part (a) to
obtain the Fourier transform of the Bessel function J_0(x).
Homework Equations
In (a) I am asked to show that the Fourier transform of
f(x)=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}
is
\tilde{f}(k)=\sqrt{\pi/2}J_0(-k)
where
J_0(x)=\frac{1}{\pi}\int_{0}^{\pi} e^{i x \cos \theta}d \theta
The Attempt at a Solution
I have found the Fourier transform of f(x) using trig substitution I just can't see how to get the FT of J_0(x).
Any hints as to where I should begin?
