Fourier series with complex coefficients

$begingroup$


Hello i need to find the complex coffecients of the fouriers series of the $2pi$ perriodic function:
$$f(x)= frac{pi-x}{2}, forall xin]-pi;pi]$$
I stock in the computation of complex coefficients $$c_n=frac{1}{2pi}int_{-pi}^{pi}{f(x)e^{-inx}}dx$$. Precisely in what doing with $e^{inpi}$ in the result.

    Why don't you compute the coefficients by evaluating the integrals?

    Since $n$ is integer, $e^{i npi} = (e^{ipi})^n = (-1)^n$. Was that your problem?

The integral with $frac{pi}{2}$ vanishes as you get $frac{sin(n pi)}{pi n}$ with $n$ being an integer as result. For $frac{-1}{2 pi}int_{-pi}^{pi}xe^{-inx}dx$, I get $-frac{i(-1)^n}{n}$ as result using integration by parts. For $c_0$, I get $frac{pi}{2}$ as result. For $c_0$, it's the $-x$ which doesn't contribute to the result as you get $-pi - (-pi)=0$ for the variable $x$. So $c_0$ is $frac{pi}{2}$ and $c_n$ is $frac{-i(-1)^n}{n}$ if I made no mistake. Maybe you were troubled to get $0$ for the $frac{pi}{2}$ of the $c_n$ ?



Hope this helps. If I made any mistake, please say it in the comments as soon as possible.
