Differentiation under integral sign - problem while finding the constant c

55 Views Asked by At

Evaluate: $$\phi(y) = \int_0^\frac{\pi}{2} \frac{1+y\sin^2(x)}{\sin^2(x)} dx $$

After applying the Leibniz formula, the indefinite integral of $d\phi(y)$ comes out to be: $$\int d\phi(y)=\frac{\pi}{2}\int dy$$ i.e.

$$\phi(y) = \frac{\pi}{2}y+c$$

Now I am stuck in finding the value of $c$. On putting $y=0$ the integral does not converges! How can I find the complete function? Is it possible or am I doing something wrong. Please help.

Thank you
