Back to Sine and cosine series

Exercise 105

Avg difficulty 4.0

Let f(t)=t+∑n=1∞12nsin⁡(nt)f(t) = t + \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{2^n} \sin(nt). Solve x′′+πx=f(t)x'' + \pi x = f(t) for the Dirichlet conditions x(0)=0x(0) = 0 and x(π)=1x(\pi) = 1. Hint: Note that tπ\frac{t}{\pi} satisfies the given Dirichlet conditions.
