Finding $frac{1}{2pi}int_{0}^{2pi}phi^prime(x) dx$, where $phi(x)=arctanfrac{3cos x}{4(cos x+sin x)}$. Why...












1












$begingroup$


I'm tasked with the following problem:



Evaluate
$$I_C=frac{1}{2pi}int_{0}^{2pi}left(frac{d}{dtheta}phi(theta)right) dtheta,quadtext{where}; phi(theta)=arctanleft[frac{3cos(theta)}{4(cos(theta)+sin(theta))}right]$$



Am I correct in assuming that this is simply $phi(2pi)-phi(0)$? When I do that I get zero, but when I take the derivative, then evaluate the integral I get -1. How do I use the fundamental theorem of calculus to get the correct answer?
