int_0^oo e^(-x)cosx dx Determine whether the integral diverges or converges. Evaluate the integral if it converges.

We will use integration by parts (twice):
int u dv=uv-int v du
int_0^infty e^-x cos x dx=|[u=e^-x,dv=cos x dx],[du=-e^-x dx,v=sin x]|=
e^-x sin x+int_0^infty e^-x sin x dx=|[u=e^-x,dv=sin x dx],[du=-e^-x dx,v=-cos x]|=
(e^-x sin x-e^-x cos x)|_0^infty-int_0^inftye^-x cos x dx
We can see that the end integral is equal to the starting one hence we can solve equation
int_0^infty e^-x cos x dx=(e^-x sin x-e^-x cos x)|_0^infty-int_0^inftye^-x cos x dx
2int_0^infty e^-x cos x dx=(e^-x sin x-e^-x cos x)|_0^infty
int_0^infty e^-x cos x dx=1/2(e^-x sin x-e^-x cos x)|_0^infty=
1/2[lim_(x to infty) (e^-x sin x-e^-x cos x)-e^0 sin0+e^0 cos0]=
1/2(0-0-0+1)=1/2
As we can see the integral converges to 1/2.
The image below shows the graph of the function and area between it and x-axis corresponding to the integral. We can see that the function converges to zero and it does so "very fast" implying that the integral should probably converge, which we have shown in the above calculation.
