Question 1
Given a function f(x) = x² defined on [0,1], compute the first two Fourier coefficients using inner products against the eigenfunctions ϕ_n = sin(nπx).
💡 Hint: Use the definitions of inner products to set up the integrals.
Question 2
If an eigenfunction is orthogonal, what does that mean for its contribution to the Fourier expansion of a function?
💡 Hint: Recall how the inner product determines contributions.
