Class 12 Maths · Integrals · Long Answer #98

Evaluate \(\int_{\pi/6}^{\pi/3}dx/(1+\sqrt{\tan x})\).

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: π/12
  1. Let I be the integral. Reflect x↦π/2−x, which interchanges the endpoints.
  2. Since tan(π/2−x)=1/tan x, the reflected integrand is √(tan x)/(1+√(tan x)).
  3. Add to get 2I=∫_(π/6)^(π/3)1dx=π/6.
  4. Therefore the integral equals π/12.
