Exercise 101

Suppose f(t)f(t) is defined on [−π,π][-\pi,\pi] as f(t)=sin⁡(t)f(t) = \sin(t). Extend periodically and compute the Fourier series.

2.5

Exercise 102

Suppose f(t)f(t) is defined on (−π,π](-\pi,\pi] as f(t)=sin⁡(πt)f(t) = \sin(\pi t). Extend periodically and compute the Fourier series.

2.5

Exercise 103

Suppose f(t)f(t) is defined on (−π,π](-\pi,\pi] as f(t)=sin⁡2(t)f(t) = \sin^2(t). Extend periodically and compute the Fourier series.

Exercise 104

Suppose f(t)f(t) is defined on (−π,π](-\pi,\pi] as f(t)=t4f(t) = t^4. Extend periodically and compute the Fourier series.
