    \[\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{1}{1+{{\tan }^{3}}x}}dx\]is equal to

    A)  \[\pi /2\]

    B)  \[\pi /4\]

    C)  \[\pi \]

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let   \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{1}{1+{{\tan }^{3}}x}}\,dx\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\cos }^{3}}x}{{{\cos }^{3}}\,x+{{\sin }^{3}}x}}dx\] ?..(i) \[\Rightarrow \] \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\cos }^{3}}\left( \frac{\pi }{2}-x \right)}{{{\cos }^{3}}\left( \frac{\pi }{2}-x \right)+{{\sin }^{3}}\left( \frac{\pi }{2}-x \right)}}dx\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{\frac{{{\sin }^{3}}x}{{{\sin }^{3}}x+{{\cos }^{3}}x}dx}\] ?.(ii) On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \[2I=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}{1\,\,\,dx}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[2I=[x]_{0}^{\pi /2}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[I=\frac{\pi }{4}\]
