    \[\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi }{2}}{\frac{{{\sin }^{n}}\theta }{{{\sin }^{n}}\theta +{{\cos }^{n}}\theta }}d\theta \]is equal to:

    A)  \[1\]    

    B)                         \[0\]                    

    C)  \[\frac{\pi }{2}\]                             

    D)         \[\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    E)  \[\pi \]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let\[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\sin }^{n}}\theta }{{{\sin }^{n}}\theta +{{\cos }^{n}}\theta }}d\theta \]                    ?.(i) \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\sin }^{n}}(\pi /2-\theta )}{{{\sin }^{n}}(\pi /2-\theta )+{{\cos }^{n}}(\pi /2-\theta )}}d\theta \] \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\cos }^{n}}\theta }{{{\cos }^{n}}\theta +{{\sin }^{n}}\theta }}d\theta \]                                          ?(ii) On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \[2I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\sin }^{n}}\theta +{{\cos }^{n}}\theta }{{{\cos }^{n}}\theta +{{\sin }^{n}}\theta }}d\theta \]                 \[=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{d\theta =\frac{\pi }{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[I=\frac{\pi }{4}\]
