let I =∫_0 ^∞   ((1−cos(x))/x^2 ) dx ⇒I =∫_0 ^∞  ((2sin^2 ((x/2)))/x^2 ) dx =_((x/2)=t)   2 ∫_0 ^∞   ((sin^2 (t))/(4t^2 )) (2)dt  =∫_0 ^∞   ((sin^2 t)/t^2 ) dt    by parts  u^′ =(1/t^2 ) and v =sin^2 t ⇒  I =[−(1/t)sin^2 (t)]_0 ^(+∞)  −∫_0 ^∞   −(1/t) (2sint cost)dt  =∫_0 ^∞     ((sin(2t))/t) dt =_(2t=u)    ∫_0 ^∞   ((sin(u))/(u/2)) (du/2) =∫_0 ^∞   ((sinu)/u) du =(π/2) ⇒  ∫_0 ^∞   ((1−cosx)/x^2 ) dx =(π/2) .
