Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\text{x}}{1+\sin\alpha\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}$

Answer

We have,
$\text{I}=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\text{x}}{1+\sin\alpha\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}\ ...(\text{i})$
$=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\pi-\text{x}}{1+\cos\alpha\sin(\pi-\text{x})}\text{ dx}$
$=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\pi-\text{x}}{1+\cos\alpha\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}\ ....(\text{ii})$
Adding (i) and (ii) we get
$2\text{I}=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\text{x}+\pi-\text{x}}{1+\cos\alpha\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{1}{1+\cos\alpha\sin\text{x}}\text{ dx}$
$=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{1}{1+\cos\alpha\sin\text{x}}$
$=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{1}{1+\cos\alpha\frac{2\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}}}\text{ dx}$
$=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{1+\tan^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}+2\cos\alpha\tan^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\text{ dx}$
$=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\sec^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}+2\cos\alpha\tan^{2}\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\text{ dx}$
Putting $\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}=\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\sec^2\text{x dx}=\text{dt}$
When $\text{x}\rightarrow0;\text{ t}\rightarrow0$
and $\text{x}\rightarrow\pi;\text{ t}\rightarrow\infty$
$\therefore\ \text{I}=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^{\infty}_0\frac{2}{1+\text{t}^2+2\cos\alpha+1}\text{ dt}$
$=\frac{\pi}{2}\int\limits^{\infty}_0\frac{2}{(\text{t}+\cos\alpha)-\cos^2\alpha+1}\text{ dt}$
$={\pi}\int\limits^{\infty}_0\frac{1}{(\text{t}+\cos\alpha)+\sin^2\alpha}\text{ dt}$
$=\pi\Big[\frac{1}{\sin\alpha}\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{1+\cos\alpha}{\sin\alpha}\Big)\Big]^1_0$
$=\frac{\pi}{\sin\alpha}\Big[\tan^{-1}(\infty)-\tan^{-1}(\cot\alpha)\Big]$
$=\frac{\pi}{\sin\alpha}\Big[\frac{\pi}{2}-\tan^{-1}\Big(\tan\Big(\frac{\pi}{2}-\alpha\Big)\Big)\Big]$
$=\frac{\pi\alpha}{\sin\alpha}$

There are two types of fertilisers $F_1$ and $F_2. F_1$ consists of $10\%$ nitrogen and $6\%$ phosphoric acid and $F_2$ consists of $5\%$ nitrogen and $10\%$ phosphoric acid. After testing the soil conditions, a farmer finds that she needs atleast $14 \ kg$ of nitrogen and $14 \ kg$ of phosphoric acid for her crop. If $F_1$ costs $Rs\ 6/kg$ and $F2$ costs $Rs\ 5/kg$, determine how much of each type of fertiliser should be used so that nutrient requirements are met at a minimum cost. What is the minimum cost?
A farmer mixes two brands P and Q of cattle feed. Brand P, costing Rs. 250 per bag, contains 3 units of nutritional element A, 2.5 units of element B and 2 units of element C. Brand Q costing Rs. 200 per bag contains 1.5 units of nutritional element A, 11.25 units of element B and 3 units of element C. The minimum requirements of nutrients A, B and C are 18 units, 45 units and 24 units respectively. Determine the number of bags of each brand which should be mixed in order to produce a mixture having a minimum cost per bag? What is the minimum cost of the mixture per bag?

A manufacturer has three machines installed in his factory. machines $I$ and $II$ are capable of being operated for at most $12$ hours whereas Machine $III$ must operate at least for $5$ hours a day. He produces only two items, each requiring the use of three machines. The number of hours required for producing one unit each of the items on the three machines is given in the following table:
Item Number of hours required by the machine
