The function g(ω)=ωsinω is an even function because sin(−ω)=−sin(ω) and −ω in the denominator cancels the negative sign, resulting in g(−ω)=g(ω). For any even function, the integral over the symmetric interval (−∞,∞) is equal to twice the integral over the half-interval (0,∞).
Conditions: The integrand is ωsinω.; The integration interval is symmetric about the origin.; The value of the full-axis integral is known to be π.
