%N Triangle used for the integral of even powers of the sine and cosine functions.

%C This entry originated from a proposal by _Ozgur Cem Birler_ for the integral of the fourth power of sin(x). _Peter Bala_ suggested the use of this triangle to cover all even powers.

%C The signed triangle T(n, k) appears in the formula

%C 2^(2*n)*n!*int(sin^{2*n}x dx) = (2*n)!/n!*x + Sum {k = 1..n} T(n, k)*sin(2*k*x), n >= 1.

%C See the Gradstein - Ryshik reference, 2.513 1., p. 168, (after changing the summation variable k -> n - k).

%C The unsigned triangle T(n, k) appears in the formula 2^(2*n)*n!*int(cos^{2*n}x dx) = (2*n)!/n!*x + Sum {k = 1..n} |T(n, k)|*sin(2*k*x), n >= 1.

%C See the Gradstein - Ryshik reference, 2.513 3., p. 168.

%C For the integral of odd powers of sine and cosine see A254932.

%C Let f_n(x) := Sum_{k=1..n} -T(n, k) * sin(k*x). Then f_n(x) = x + O(x^(2*n+1)). - _Michael Somos_, Jun 07 2019

%F T(n, k) = (-1)^k*n!/k*binomial(2*n,n - k), 1 <= k <= n.

%e The triangle T(n, k) begins:

%e n\k 1 2 3 4 5 6 ...

%e 2: -8 1

%e n=3: 2^6*3!*int((sin x)^6 dx) = 120*x - 90*sin(2*x) + 18*sin(4*x) - 2*sin(*x),

%e that is: int((sin x)^6 dx) = (5/16)*x -(15/64)*sin(2*x) + (3/64)*sin(4*x) - (1/192)*sin(6*x).

%e 2^6*3!*int((cos x)^6 dx) = 120*x + 90*sin(2*x) + 18*sin(4*x) + 2*sin(6*x),

%e that is: int((cos x)^6 dx) = (5/16)*x + (15/64)*sin(2*x) + (3/64)*sin(4*x) + (1/192)*sin(6*x).

%e As defined in my comment: f_1(x) = sin(x) = x - x^3/6 + O(x^5), f_2(x) = (8*sin(x) - sin(2x)/6 = x - x^5/30 + O(x^7), f_3(x) = (90*sin(x) - 18*sin(2x) + 2*sin(3))/60 = x - x^7/140 + O(x^9). - _Michael Somos_, Jun 07 2019
