I = ∫_0 ^(π/2) ∣sinx−cosx∣ dx  I = ∫_0 ^(π/2) ∣(√2)sin((π/4)−x)∣ dx  I = 2∫_0 ^(π/4) (√2)sin((π/4)−x) dx  I = 2(√2)[cos((π/4)−x)]_0 ^(π/4)   I = 2(√2)(1−(1/( (√2)))) = 2((√2)−1)

$$\mathrm{I}\:=\:\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}} \mid\mathrm{sin}{x}−\mathrm{cos}{x}\mid\:{dx} \\ $$$$\mathrm{I}\:=\:\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}} \mid\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{sin}\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}−{x}\right)\mid\:{dx} \\ $$$$\mathrm{I}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}} \sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{sin}\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}−{x}\right)\:{dx} \\ $$$$\mathrm{I}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\left[\mathrm{cos}\left(\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}−{x}\right)\right]_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{I}\:=\:\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{1}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{2}\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}−\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$

=∫_0 ^(π/4) (cosx−sinx)dx+∫_(π/4) ^(π/2) (sinx−cosx)dx  =[sinx+cosx]_0 ^(π/4) +[−cosx−sinx]_(π/4) ^(π/2)   = (√2)−1+(−1+(√2))    =2(√2)−2    =2((√2)−1)

$$=\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}} \left({cosx}−{sinx}\right){dx}+\int_{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}} \left({sinx}−{cosx}\right){dx} \\ $$$$=\left[{sinx}+{cosx}\right]_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}} +\left[−{cosx}−{sinx}\right]_{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{4}}} ^{\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{2}}} \\ $$$$=\:\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}−\mathrm{1}+\left(−\mathrm{1}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$=\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}−\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$=\mathrm{2}\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}−\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$
