How to find integration of [ arccos(x) ] in its domain (-1,1)? Where [.] Is Floor function.
I tried using graph method(area) but end up getting some negative terms there.

    This is a step function, so you can just add up the rectangles.

    Ans is Cos1 + Cos 2 + Cos 3 + 3. So its clear that this has to be solved using graph of arccos x.

$cos^{-1}x$ is a monotonically decreasing function, such that:





  • $3lecos^{-1}xlepi$ for $-1le xlecos3$


  • $2lecos^{-1}xle3$ for $cos3le xlecos2$


  • $1lecos^{-1}xle2$ for $cos2le xlecos1$


  • $0lecos^{-1}xle1$ for $cos1le xle 1$


$I=displaystyleint_{-1}^1lfloorcos^{-1}xrfloor dx\=displaystyleint_{-1}^{cos3}3dx+int_{cos3}^{cos2}2dx+int_{cos2}^{cos1}1dx+int_{cos1}^10dx\=cos1+cos2+cos3+3$

    Maybe a small sketch will help you



    enter image description here



    It is just a series of steps, so the integral is simple. The trick is to find the transitions, for example, to find the left-most consider $3 = arccos(x)$, whose solution is $x = cos(3)$, so in the region $-1 leq x leq cos(3)$ the function is just three, and the area is



    $$
    int_{-1}^{cos(3)} lfloor arccos(x) rfloor {rm d}x = 3 [cos(3) + 1]
    $$



    You can continue with the other steps, the result is



    $$
    int_{-1}^{1} lfloor arccos(x) rfloor {rm d}x = cos 1 + cos 2 + cos 3 + 3
    $$
