Compute integral [2pi, 0] of (cos(mx))(cosnx))dx.
I know there are two answers, one for when m=n and when m does not equal n.
I got the m=n one, but I'm having trouble for when m does not equal n.
I tried integration by parts but it I think its just an endless loop. Help! Thanks.

cos [ x - y ] = cos x cos y + sin x sin y
cos [ x + y ] = cos x cos y - sin x sin y.....add to get 2 cos x cos y...use this
to do the integrating...you certainly can finish now
