Question
By using the properties of definite integral evaluate:
$\int_0^{\frac{x}{4}} \log (1+\tan x) d x.$

Answer

$I=\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log (1+\tan x) d x \ldots(1)$
By property (6), $x=\frac{\pi}{4}-x$
$\begin{aligned}
I & =\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log \left(1+\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}-x\right)\right) d x \\
& =\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log \left[1+\frac{\tan \frac{\pi}{4}-\tan x}{1+\tan \frac{\pi}{4} \cdot \tan x}\right] d x
\end{aligned}$
$=\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log \left(1+\frac{1-\tan x}{1+\tan x}\right) d x$
$\begin{aligned} I & =\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log \left(\frac{1+\tan x+1-\tan x}{1+\tan x}\right) d x \\ & =\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log \left(\frac{2}{1+\tan x}\right) d x \\ & =\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}}(\log (2)-\log (1+\tan x)) d x\end{aligned}$
$\begin{array}{l} I =\log 2 \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} 1 d x-\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log (1+\tan x) d x \\ I=\log 2[x]_0^{\frac{\pi}{4}}- I \quad(\because \text { From equation (1)) } \\ 2 I=\log 2\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-0\right) \\ \therefore I =\frac{\pi}{8} \log 2\end{array}$

A firm manufacturing two types of electric items, A and B, can make a profit of Rs. 20 per unit of A and Rs. 30 per unit of B. Each unit of A requires 3 motors and 4 transformers and each unit of B requires 2 motors and 4 transformers. The total supply of these per month is restricted to 210 motors and 300 transformers. Type B is an export model requiring a voltage stabilizer which has a supply restricted to 65 units per month. Formulate the linear programing problem for maximum profit and solve it graphically.
