MCQ

  • A
    $\frac{1}{{(1 + {{\cot }^3}\,x)}} + c$
  • $ - \frac{1}{{3(1 + {{\tan }^3}\,x)}} + c$
  • C
    $\frac{{{{\sin }^3}\,x}}{{(1 + {{\cos }^3}\,x)}} + c$
  • D
    $ - \frac{{{{\cos }^3}\,x}}{{3(1 + {{\sin }^3}\,x)}} + c$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$ - \frac{1}{{3(1 + {{\tan }^3}\,x)}} + c$
b
Let $\mathrm{I}=\int \frac{\sin ^{2} x \cos ^{2} x}{\left(\sin ^{3} x+\cos ^{3} x\right)^{2}} d x$

$I=\int\left(\frac{\sin x \cdot \cos x}{\sin ^{3} x+\cos ^{3} x}\right)^{2} d x$

$I=\int\left(\frac{\sin x \cdot \cos x}{\cos ^{2} x\left(1+\tan ^{3} x\right)}\right)^{2} d x$

$=\int\left(\frac{\sin x \sec ^{2} x}{\left(1+\tan ^{3} x\right)}\right)^{2} d x$

Put $1+\tan ^{3} x=t$

$d t=3 \tan ^{2} x \sec ^{2} x d x$ or $d x$

$=\frac{d t}{3 \tan ^{2} x \sec ^{2} x}$

$\therefore I=\int \frac{\sin ^{2} x \sec ^{4} x}{t^{2}} \times \frac{d t}{3 \tan ^{2} x \sec ^{2} x}$

$I = \frac{1}{3}\int {\frac{{{{\sin }^2}x \cdot {{\sec }^4}x}}{{{t^2}}}}  \cdot \frac{{{{\sin }^2}x}}{{{{\cos }^2}x}} \times \frac{{dt}}{{{{\sec }^2}x}}$

$=\frac{1}{3} \int \frac{\sin ^{2} \pi \cdot \sec ^{4} x}{t^{2}} \times \frac{d t}{\sin ^{2} x \sec ^{4} x}$

$\therefore \mathrm{I}=\frac{1}{3} \int \frac{d t}{t^{2}}=\frac{1}{3} \int t^{-2} d t$

$I=\frac{1}{3}\left[\frac{t^{-2+1}}{-2+1}\right]+c$

$=\frac{-1}{3}\left[\frac{1}{t}\right]+c$

$\text { or } \mathrm{I}=-\frac{1}{3\left(1+\tan ^{3} x\right)}+c$
