Question
Evaluate the following definite integrals:$\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1}{1+\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
✓
Answer
Let $\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1}{1+\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}$ Then,$\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1-\sin\text{x}}{(1+\sin\text{x})(1-\sin\text{x})}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1-\sin\text{x}}{1+\sin^2\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1-\sin\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}}\text{ dx}$ $\big[\because\sin^2\text{x}+\cos^2\text{x}=1\big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\sec^2\text{x}-\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\big[\tan\text{x}-\sec\text{x}\big]^{\pi}_0$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=(\tan\pi-\sec\pi)-(\tan0-\sec0)$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=0+1-(0-1)$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=1+1$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=2$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1-\sin\text{x}}{1+\sin^2\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\frac{1-\sin\text{x}}{\cos^2\text{x}}\text{ dx}$ $\big[\because\sin^2\text{x}+\cos^2\text{x}=1\big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\pi}\sec^2\text{x}-\sec\text{x}\tan\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\big[\tan\text{x}-\sec\text{x}\big]^{\pi}_0$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=(\tan\pi-\sec\pi)-(\tan0-\sec0)$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=0+1-(0-1)$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=1+1$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=2$
