Is it true that 

\[\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx=\int_{\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx?\]

The answer is true. We have 

\[\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx=\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx+\int_{\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx\]
\[=0+\int_{\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx.\]

Hence 
\[\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx=\int_{\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\pi}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx.\]

Note that 
\[\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}dx=0\]
since the fuction $\frac{\sin ^3 (\pi x)}{1+x^{10}}$ is odd.
