The period of a pendulum with length L that makes a maximum angle

 θ_0 with the vertical is T  =  4√Lg ∫0π/2 dx/√1 − k^2 sin^2 x
where  k  =  sin (1/2θ_0) and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Use the inequalities in part (b) to estimate the period of a pendulum with
 L  =  1 meter and θ_0  =  10∘.
How does it compare with the estimate  T  ≈  2π√L/g? What if θ_0  =  42∘?

Part(b):  2π√L/g (1 + 1/4k^2)⩽  T  ⩽  2π√L/g4 − 3k^2/4 − 4k^2
(AS 32. The figure shows a pendulum with length L that makes a
maximum angle 0, with the vertical. Using Newton's
Second Law it can be shown that the period T (the time
for one complete swing) is given by
dx
T= 4,
a Jo
VI - k² sin³x
where k = sin( 0o) and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
If L = 1 m and 0, = 42°, use Simpson's Rule with n = 10
to find the period.
