QUESTION #11158
Question 1
$\displaystyle\int_0^\pi \csc^2 x\,dx =$
Correct Answer Explanation
$\int_0^\pi \csc^2 x\,dx = [-\cot x]_0^\pi$. At both $x=0^+$ and $x=\pi^-$, $\cot x\to \infty$ (changes sign). The integrand has a non-integrable singularity at both endpoints, so the integral diverges ($\infty$).
