I got this doubt while evaluating the integrals:



$$I=int_0^fracpi2ln(sin x)sin xdx$$ and



$$J=int_0^fracpi4csc xdx$$



Now even though the integrand $f(x)=ln(sin x)sin x$ is not defined at $x=0$ which is the lower limit, still it has a finite answer.



But integrand in $J$ is not defined at $x=0$ and integral is infinite.



So how to identify without explicitly evaluating?

    In this case, the discontinuity at $x=0$ was a removable discontinuity. But such is not the case at $x=0$ for $csc x$ because of the vertical asymptote. However, even in the case where there is a vertical asymptote the integral may still converge. For example, $int_0^1dfrac1sqrtx,dx$.

For the second integral $J$, the integrand goes to $infty$ as $xto 0$. Roughly $frac1sin x = frac1x$. From the examples $int_0^1 x^-a dx$ we know that $a=1$ is divergent, albeit borderline so. Since
$$
sin x = x - frac13!x^3 pm ...
$$

we have $sin x leq x$ for $x>0$ small (from elementary trigonometry, or since the tail of a (edit: convergent) alternating series with terms of decreasing value is dominated by any previous term). Thus $frac1sin x geq frac1x$ and the integral $J$ is divergent.
