Answer: C

Step-by-step solution

∫0π4xdxsin⁡4(2x)+cos⁡4(2x)\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{x d x}{\sin ^{4}(2 x)+\cos ^{4}(2 x)} Let 2x=t2 x=t then dx=12dtd x=\frac{1}{2} d t

I=14∫0π2tdtsin⁡4t+cos⁡4tI=\frac{1}{4} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{t d t}{\sin ^{4} t+\cos ^{4} t}

I=14∫0π2(π2−t)dtsin⁡4(π2−t)+cos⁡4(π2−t)I=\frac{1}{4} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-t\right) d t}{\sin ^{4}\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-t\right)+\cos ^{4}\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-t\right)} I=14∫0π2π2dtsin⁡4t+cos⁡4t−II=\frac{1}{4} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\frac{\pi}{2} d t}{\sin ^{4} t+\cos ^{4} t}-I

2I=π8∫0π2dtsin⁡4t+cos⁡4t2 I=\frac{\pi}{8} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{d t}{\sin ^{4} t+\cos ^{4} t}

2I=π8∫0π2sec⁡4tdttan⁡4t+12 I=\frac{\pi}{8} \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\sec ^{4} t d t}{\tan ^{4} t+1}

Let tant =y=\mathrm{y} then sec⁡2tdt=dy\sec ^{2} \mathrm{t} \mathrm{dt}=\mathrm{dy}

2I=π8∫0∞(1+y2)dy1+y42 I=\frac{\pi}{8} \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\left(1+y^{2}\right) d y}{1+y^{4}} =π16∫0∞1+1y2y2+1y2dy=\frac{\pi}{16} \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{1+\frac{1}{y^{2}}}{y^{2}+\frac{1}{y^{2}}} \mathrm{dy} Put y−1y=py-\frac{1}{y}=p

I=π16∫−∞∞dpp2+(2)2\mathrm{I}=\frac{\pi}{16} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\mathrm{dp}}{\mathrm{p}^{2}+(\sqrt{2})^{2}}

=π162[tan⁡−1(p2)]−∞∞=\frac{\pi}{16 \sqrt{2}}\left[\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{\mathrm{p}}{\sqrt{2}}\right)\right]_{-\infty}^{\infty}

I=π2162I=\frac{\pi^{2}}{16 \sqrt{2}}

I=2π232I=\frac{\sqrt{2} \pi^{2}}{32}
