Class 12 Maths · Integrals · Long Answer #168

Evaluate \(\int_0^4[|x|+|x-2|+|x-4|]dx\).

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 20
  1. On [0,4], |x|+|x−4|=x+4−x=4.
  2. Therefore I=16+∫₀²(2−x)dx+∫₂⁴(x−2)dx.
  3. Each remaining triangle contributes 2, so I=16+2+2=20.
  4. Therefore the integral equals 20.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] On [0,4], |x|+|x−4|=x+4−x=4.
  • [1 mark] Therefore I=16+∫₀²(2−x)dx+∫₂⁴(x−2)dx.
  • [1 mark] Each remaining triangle contributes 2, so I=16+2+2=20.
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore the integral equals 20.
