finding value of integral
$begingroup$
$$int_0^{pi/2} (cos x)^{2011} sin (2013 x) dx $$
The value is given to be $frac{1}{2012}$. I am while solving using by parts, but one term is remaining like $frac{1}{2}$, then $frac{1}{3},$ and so on. Kindly help.
what i am stuck at is following.
$$I(m,n) =int_0^{pi/2} (cos x)^{m} sin (n x) dx $$
$$I(m,n)= frac {1}{m+n} + frac{m}{m+n}I(m-1,n-1)$$
after deriving this i am not able to proceed further

This double recurrence relationship looks a deadend. I have found the general formula $$int_0^{pi/2} (cos x)^{nu-2} sin (nu x) dx=dfrac{1}{nu-1} $$ in a book. It can help to buid a more sympathetic recurrence...

Hint:
$n=m+2implies$ $$I_{(m,m+2)}=dfrac1{2m+2}+dfrac m{2m+2}I_{(m-1,m+1)}$$
$I_{(0,2)}=1$
$m=1implies$ $$I_{(1,3)}=dfrac14+dfrac14I_{(0,2)}=dfrac12$$
$m=2implies$ $$I_{(2,4)}=dfrac16+dfrac13I_{(1,3)}=dfrac13$$
Use induction for $I_{(m-1,m+1)}=dfrac2{m-1+m+1}$

In this case, reasons for the down- and closevotes would be helpful. I do not see one.

What's meant by stuck? You can not derive that or don't know how to utilize that

This double recurrence relationship looks a deadend. I have found the general formula $$int_0^{pi/2} (cos x)^{nu-2} sin (nu x) dx=dfrac{1}{nu-1} $$ in a book. It can help to buid a more sympathetic recurrence...
