To find the area under half of one arch of the sine curve, we need to evaluate the integral of sin(x) with respect to x from 0 to π/2.

∫ sin(x) dx = -cos(x) + C

To evaluate this integral, we substitute the upper limit (π/2) and lower limit (0) into the antiderivative:

[-cos(π/2) + C] - [-cos(0) + C] = [0 - (-1) + C] - [1 + C] = 0 - (-1) - 1 = 0 + 1 - 1 = 0.

Therefore, the exact area under half of one arch of the sine curve is 0.
