Question
Evaluate the following intregals:
$\int\frac{1}{1-\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}\ \text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\frac{1}{1-\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}}\ \text{dx}$
Putting $\sin\text{x}=\frac{2\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}},\cos\text{x}=\frac{1-\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}$
$\text{I}=\int\frac{1}{1-\frac{2\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}+\frac{1-\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}}$
$=\int\frac{1+\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{1+\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}-2\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}+1-\tan^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\ \text{dx}$
$=\int\frac{\sec^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{2-2\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}}\ \text{dx}$
Let $\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}=\text{t}$
$\frac{1}{2}\sec^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}\text{dx}=\text{dt}$
$=\frac{2}{2}\int\frac{\text{dt}}{1-\text{t}}$
$=-\log|1-\text{t}|+\text{C}$
$\text{I}=-\log\big|1-\tan\frac{\text{x}}{2}\big|+\text{C}$

A factory owner purchases two types of machines, A and B for his factory. The requirements and the limitations for the machines are-as follows:

Machine
Area occupied
Labour force
Daily output ( in units)
A
1000m2
12 men
60
B
1200m2
8 men
40

The prices of three commodities P, Q and R are Rs. x, y and z per unit respectively. A purchases 4 units of R and sells 3 units of P and 5 units of Q. B purchases 3 units of Q and sells 2 units of P and 1 unit of R. C purchases 1 unit of P and sells 4 units of Q and 6 units of R. In the process A, B and C earn Rs. 6000, Rs. 5000 and Rs. 13000 respectively. If selling the units is positive earning and buying the units is negative earnings, find the price per unit of three commodities by using matrix method.
