Q.

The value of the integral ∫-π4π4x+π42-cos2xdx is                 [2023]

1 π2123  
2 π26    
3 π233    
4 π263  

Ans.

(4)

I=∫-π4π4x+π42-cos2x dx  ...(i)

Replace x by -x, we get

I=∫-π4π4-x+π42-cos2x dx  ...(ii)

Adding (i) and (ii), we get

2I=∫-π4π4π/22-cos2xdx⇒ I=π4·2∫0π4dx2-cos2xdx

⇒I=π4·2∫0π4 (1+tan2x) dx2(1+tan2x)-(1-tan2x)

=π2∫0π4 sec2x dx2(1+tan2x)-(1-tan2x)

Let tanx=t⇒sec2x dx=dt

at x=0,t=0 and x=π4,t=1

I=π2∫01dt3t2+1⇒ I=π6∫01dtt2+(13)2=π63·[tan-13t]01

⇒I=π23tan-13    I=π263
