f and g are continuous functions on interval [ a, b ]. Given that f ( a -x)= f (x) and g (x)+ g ( a -x)= a, show that ∫_0^a f (x) g (x) d x=a/2 ∫_0^a…
f and g are continuous functions on interval $\displaystyle [\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]$. Given that $\displaystyle \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{a}-x)=\mathrm{f}(x)$ and $\displaystyle \mathrm{g}(x)+\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{a}-x)=\mathrm{a}$, show that $\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x) \mathrm{g}(x) \mathrm{d} x=\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2} \int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x) \mathrm{d} x$.
Marking-scheme solution
\[\begin{aligned}
& I=\int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x) \mathrm{g}(x) \mathrm{d} x \\
& =\int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{a}-x) \mathrm{g}(\mathrm{a}-x) \mathrm{d} x \\
& =\int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x)[\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{g}(x)] \mathrm{d} x \\
& I=\mathrm{a} \int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x) \mathrm{d} x-\int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x) \mathrm{g}(x) \mathrm{d} x \\
& \text { Adding, we get } I=\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2} \int_{0}^{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{f}(x) \mathrm{d} x
\end{aligned}
