Question
Evaluate:
$\int\limits^{\pi/2}_{0} \frac{\cos^{2} \text{x dx}}{1 + 3\sin^{2}\text{x}}$

Answer

$\text{I} = \int\limits^\frac{\pi}{2}_{0}\frac{\text{dx}}{1 + 4 \tan^{2}\text{x}} = \int\limits^\frac{\pi}{2}_0 \frac{\sec^{2}\text{x}}{( 1 + \tan^{2} \text{x})(1 + 4\tan^{2}\text{x})} \text{dx}$$\text{Put} \tan \text{x = t}$
$\text{I} = \int\limits^{\infty}_{0}\frac{\text{dt}}{(1 + \text{t}^{2)} (1 + 4 \text{t}^{2})} = -\frac{1}{3} \int\limits^\infty_{0} \frac{\text{dt}}{1 + \text{t}^{2}} + \frac{4}{3}\int\limits^\infty_{0} \frac{\text{dt}}{1 + (\text{2 t)}^{2}}$
$= - \frac{1}{3} \tan^{-1}\text{t}\bigg]^{\infty}_{0} + \frac{4}{3 \times 2} \tan^{-1}\text{(2 t})\bigg]^{\infty}_{0}$
$= -\frac{1}{3}\bigg(\frac{\pi}{2}\bigg) + \frac{2}{3}\bigg(\frac{\pi}{2}\bigg) = \frac{\pi}{6}$

A school wants to award its students for the values of Honesty, Regularity and Hard work with a total cash award of Rs. 6,000. Three times the award money for Hard work added to that given for honesty amounts to Rs. 11,000. The award money given for Honesty and Hard work together is double the one given for Regularity. Represent the above situation algebraically and find the award money for each value, using matrix method. Apart from these values, namely, Honesty, Regularity and Hard work, suggest one more value which the school must include for awards.

A factory makes tennis rackets and cricket bats. A tennis racket takes $1.5$ hours of machine time and $3$ hours of craftman's time in its making while a cricket bat takes $3$ hours of machine time and $1$ hour of craftman's time. In a day, the factory has the availability of not more than $42$ hours of machine time and $24$ hours of craftman's time. If the profit on a racket and on a bat is $Rs. 20$ and $Rs. 10$ respectively, find the number of tennis rackets and cricket bats that the factory must manufacture to earn the maximum profit. Make it as an $\text{LPP}$ and solve it graphically.
A manufacturer has three machine I, II, III installed in his factory. Machines I and II are capable of being operated for at most 12 hours whereas machine III must be operated for atleast 5 hours a day. She produces only two items M and N each requiring the use of all the three machines.
The number of hours required for producing 1 unit each of M and N on the three machines are given in the following table:
