Question
Evaluate the following definite integrals:
$\int\limits_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{a}^2\cos^2\text{x}+\text{b}^2\sin^2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{a}^2\cos^2\text{x}+\text{b}^2\sin^2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$ Then,
$\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{a}^2\cos^2\text{x}+\text{b}^2(1-\cos^2\text{x})\big)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{b}^2+(\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2)\cos^2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\Bigg(\text{b}^2+\frac{\big(\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2\big)\big(1+\cos2\text{x}\big)}{2}\Bigg)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\bigg[\text{b}^2\text{x}+\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{2}\Big(\text{x}+\frac{\sin2\text{x}}{2}\Big)\bigg]_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{b}^2\pi}{2}+\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{2}\frac{\pi}{2}+0$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\pi}{4}\big(\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2\big)$
