where T 0 denotes the integral over any one period and 0 to T0 or -T0/2
to T0/2.

Setting k=0, we have 0

which indicates the c0 equals the average value of x(t) over a period.
• When x(t) is real, c-k = ck* [asterisk denotes complex
conjugate].
Periodic Signals:
A c-t signal x(t) is periodic if there is a positive value of T for which x(t+T) = x(t) all t.
The fundamental period T0 of x(t) is the smallest value of T for which the above equation is

(e) Using trigonometric identity sin2 = 1/2 (1-cos2),
x(t) = sin2t = 1/2 - 1/2 cos2t = x1(t) + x2(t)
where x1(t) = 1/2 is a dc signal with an arbitrary period and x2(t) = -1/2 cos2t is
periodic with T2 = 2/ = . ( = 2)
Therefore, the fundamental period T0 of x(t) is and 0=2/T0=2.
