    The value of \[\int{\frac{2\,\,dx}{\sqrt{1-4{{x}^{2}}}}}\] is [Karnataka CET 2001; Pb. CET 2001]

    A)            \[{{\tan }^{-1}}(2x)+c\]

    B)            \[{{\cot }^{-1}}(2x)+c\]

    C)            \[{{\cos }^{-1}}(2x)+c\]

    D)   \[{{\sin }^{-1}}(2x)+c\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                       \[I=\int{\frac{2dx}{\sqrt{1-4{{x}^{2}}}}}\]. Put \[2x=\sin \theta \] Þ \[2dx=\cos \theta \,\,d\theta \]            \[\Rightarrow I=\int{\frac{\cos \theta \,\,d\theta }{\sqrt{1-{{\sin }^{2}}\theta }}=\int{\frac{\cos \theta }{\cos \theta }d\theta =\int{d\theta +c=\theta +c}}}\].            Therefore, \[I={{\sin }^{-1}}(2x)+c.\]
