Class 12 Maths · Integrals · Very Long Answer #119

Evaluate \(\int_0^{\pi/2}\sin2x\,\arctan(\sin x)dx\).

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: π/2−1
  1. Set u=sin x, du=cos x dx, and sin2x dx=2u du. The limits become 0,1.
  2. By parts, ∫₀¹2u arctan u du=[u²arctan u]₀¹−∫₀¹u²/(1+u²)du.
  3. The boundary term is π/4. Rewrite u²/(1+u²)=1−1/(1+u²).
  4. The remaining integral is [u−arctan u]₀¹=1−π/4; subtract it from the boundary term.
  5. Therefore the integral equals π/2−1.
