Explanation:
Use the average value formula where the average value of a function f(x) on the closed interval [a,b] is:
1 b a a b f ( x ) d x
So, plug in our function f ( x ) = sin x over the interval [ 0 , π ] :
1 π 0 π ( sin x ) d x
= 1 π [ cos x ] 0 π
= 1 π [ ( cos π ) ( cos 0 ) ]
= 1 π [ ( 1 ) ( 1 ) ]
= 2 π
