JEE Main 2025 — 3 April, Evening Shift — Question 24

The integral ∫0π8xdx4cos⁡2x+sin⁡2x\int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{8 x d x}{4 \cos ^{2} x+\sin ^{2} x} is equal to

  1. Option A:

    π2\pi^{2}

  2. Option B:

    3π22\frac{3 \pi^{2}}{2}

  3. Option C:

    4π24 \pi^{2}

  4. Option D:

    2π22 \pi^{2}

    Correct

Answer: D

Step-by-step solution

I=∫0π8x4cos⁡2x+sin⁡2xdx…(1)I=\int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{8 x}{4 \cos ^{2} x+\sin ^{2} x} d x …(1)

I=∫0π8(π−x)4cos⁡2(π−x)+sin⁡2(π−x)dxI=\int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{8(\pi-x)}{4 \cos ^{2}(\pi-x)+\sin ^{2}(\pi-x)} d x

I=∫0π8(π−x)4cos⁡2x+sin⁡2xdx…(2)\begin{gathered} I=\int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{8(\pi-x)}{4 \cos ^{2} x+\sin ^{2} x} d x …(2) \end{gathered}

Adding (1) and (2)

2I=8π∫0π14cos⁡2x+sin⁡2xdx2 I=8 \pi \int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{1}{4 \cos ^{2} x+\sin ^{2} x} d x

I=4π×2∫0πsec⁡2x4tan⁡2xdxI=4 \pi \times 2 \int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{\sec ^{2} x}{4 \tan ^{2} x} d x

Put tan⁡x=t\tan x=t sec⁡2xdx=dt\sec ^{2} x d x=d t

I=8π∫0∞dt4+t2I=8 \pi \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{d t}{4+t^{2}}

I=8π12(tan⁡−1t2)0∞I=4π(π2)I=2π2\begin{aligned} & I=8 \pi \frac{1}{2}\left(\tan ^{-1} \frac{t}{2}\right)_{0}^{\infty} \\& I=4 \pi\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) \\& I=2 \pi^{2} \end{aligned}
