FourierSeries
Grant Keady

 
You might find the lab on Fourier Series useful in answering this question. The Matlab lab sheet is here. Find the Fourier series of the 2p-periodic function
f(x) = x        for -p < x £ p
In entering your answers, we will denote the coefficients in the series by
f(x) = a0 + ¥
å
m=1 
( a2m-1 cos((2m-1) x) + b2m-1 sin((2m-1) x) + a2m cos(2m x) + b2m sin(2m x) )
In this sum, m goes from 1 to infinity.
The various coefficients for which you are asked are rational functions of m, and should be entered as such. Use the facts that sin(mp) = 0, cos(2mp) = 1, cos((2m-1)p) = -1 to remove trig functions from your expressions for the coefficients. Enter p as Pi.
