Explanation

$\int _0^{\pi/2}\sin x\sin 2x\sin 3x dx$


$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\int _0^{\pi/2}2\sin x\sin 2x\sin 3x dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\int _0^{\pi/2}2\sin x\sin 3x\sin 2x dx$

We know that       $2\sin A \sin B=\cos(A-B)-\cos (A+B)$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\int _0^{\pi/2}(\cos (x-3x)-\cos(x+3x))\sin 2x dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\int _0^{\pi/2}(\cos 2x-\cos 4x)\sin 2x dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\int _0^{\pi/2} \sin 2x \cos 2x dx-\dfrac{1}{2}\int _0^{\pi /2}\sin 2x \cos 4x dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi/2} 2\sin 2x \cos 2x dx-\dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi /2}2\sin 2x \cos 4x dx$

We know that   $2\sin A \cos B=\sin(A+B)+\sin (A-B)$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi/2} (\sin (2x+2x)+\sin (2x-2x))dx-\dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi /2}(\sin (2x+4x)+\sin (2x-4x)) dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi/2} \sin 4xdx-\dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi /2}(\sin 6x-\sin 2x) dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi/2} \sin 4xdx-\dfrac{1}{4}\int _0^{\pi /2}\sin 6x dx+\dfrac{1}{4}\int _{0}^{\pi/4}\sin 2x dx$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{4}[\dfrac{\sin 4x}{4}] _0^{\pi/4}-\dfrac{1}{4}[\dfrac{-\sin 6x}{6}] _0^{\pi/4}+\dfrac{1}{4}[\dfrac{-\cos 2x}{2}] _0^{\pi/4}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{-1}{12}+\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{6}$

The value of the integral $\displaystyle\int{\sin{x}{\cos}^{4}{x}dx}$ where $x\in\left[-1,\,1\right]$ is 

  1. 1

  2. 1\2

  3. 0

  4. 4

C Correct answer
Explanation
$f\left(x\right)=\sin{x}{\cos}^{4}{x},$

$f\left(-x\right)=\sin{\left(-x\right)}{\cos}^{4}{\left(-x\right)}=-f\left(x\right)$

Since $f\left(x\right)$ is an odd function, $\displaystyle\int _{-1}^{1}\sin{x}{\cos}^{4}{x}dx=0$

If $\phi{\left(x\right)}={\phi}^{\prime}{\left(x\right)}$ and $\phi{\left(1\right)}=2$ then $\phi{\left(3\right)}$  is equal to
  1. ${ \phi }^{ 2 }$
  2. $2{ \phi }^{ 2 }$
  3. $3{ \phi }^{ 2 }$
  4. $2{ \phi }^{ 3 }$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
$ \phi(x) = \phi '(x) \Rightarrow  \phi(x) = \frac{2\phi(x)}{dx} $

$ \Rightarrow  $  $\int  dx = \int \frac{d(\phi (x))}{\phi(x)}$

$ \Rightarrow x+c = ln \phi (x) \Rightarrow \phi (x) = k.e^{x}$

$ \phi(1) = 2 \Rightarrow  2 = k.e^{1}  $ $ \Rightarrow k=2e^{-1}$

$  \therefore \phi (x) = 2.e^{x-1}$

$ \phi(3) = 2.e^{2} = \phi^{2}$

$ \phi(3) = \phi^{2}$

D Correct answer
Explanation

$\int _{1}^{4}\dfrac{x   dx}{\sqrt{2 + 4x}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\int _{1}^{4}\dfrac{x   dx}{\sqrt{x+\dfrac{1}{2}}}$
$=\dfrac{1}{2}\left [ \int _{1}^{4}\dfrac{(x+\dfrac{1}{2})dx}{\sqrt{x+\dfrac{1}{2}}}-\int _{1}^{4}\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}dx}{\sqrt{x+\dfrac{1}{2}}} \right ]$
$=\dfrac{1}{2}\left [ \int _{1}^{4} \sqrt{x+\dfrac{1}{2}} dx-\int _{1}^{4}(x+\dfrac{1}{2})^{\dfrac{1}{2}} \int _{1}^{4} \right ]$
$=\dfrac{1}{2} \left [ \dfrac{2}{3} (x+\dfrac{1}{2})^{\dfrac{3}{2}} \int _{1}^{4}-(x+\dfrac{1}{2})^{\dfrac{4}{2}} \int _{1}^{4} \right ]$
$=\dfrac{1}{3} \left [ \left ( \dfrac{9}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{3}{2}}-\left ( \dfrac{3}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{3}{2}} \right ] -\dfrac{1}{2} \left [ \left ( \dfrac{9}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{1}{2}}-\left ( \dfrac{3}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{1}{2}} \right ]$
$=\dfrac{1}{3} \left [ \left ( \dfrac{9}{2} \right )\left ( \dfrac{9}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{1}{2}}-\left ( \dfrac{3}{2} \right )\left ( \dfrac{3}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{1}{2}} \right ] - \dfrac{1}{2} \left [ \left ( \dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}} \right )-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}} \right ]$

The value of $\displaystyle \int _{0}^{2}(x-\log _{2}a)dx=2\log _{2}(\frac{2}{a})$ for which of the following conditions?

  1. $\mathrm{a}>0$
  2. $\mathrm{a}>2$
  3. $\mathrm{a}=4$
  4. $\mathrm{a}=8$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

$\int _{ 0 }^{ 2 }{ (x-\log _{ 2 }a } )dx=2\log _{ 2 }(\cfrac { 2 }{ a } )$

The solution exists only if function is defined.
$ x-\log _{ 2 }a\longrightarrow$ defined
$ x\longrightarrow$ is defined for all values 
But $\log _{ 2 }a\longrightarrow$ defined for all values
But $ \log _{ 2 }a\longrightarrow$ defined for only a>0$
$\therefore \log (0)$ and $\log \text {(negative values)} )\longrightarrow$ not defined
Hence, required condition is $a>0$.

Evaluate $I = \displaystyle \int _{\pi /6}^{\pi /3}\sin x:dx$

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{2}$
  2. $\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2}$
  3. $\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{2\sqrt{3}}$
  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Given : $I = \displaystyle \int _{\pi /6}^{\pi /3}\sin x\:dx$

Integeration of $\sin x dx$ is $-cos x dx + c$

$I = -cos x dx$

Substuting the upper and lower limit values we get,

$I = -cos\dfrac{\pi}{3}+cos\dfrac{\pi}{6}$

$I = \dfrac{-\sqrt{3}}{2} + \dfrac{1}{2}$

$I = \dfrac{1-\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Tarun got $30%$ concession on the labelled price of an article and sold it for $Rs. 8750$ with $25%$ profit on the price he bought. What was the labelled price ?

  1. $Rs. 10,000$
  2. $Rs. 12,000$
  3. $Rs. 16,000$
  4. Data inadequate

  5. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Let the labelled price be $x$ Rs
$\therefore $ Price at which $=x-\dfrac{30}{10}\times x$
he bought $=\left(\dfrac{7x}{10}\right)$ Rs
Also profit is $25\%$
$\therefore  125\% $ of $\dfrac{7x}{10}=8750$ Rs
$\therefore \dfrac{5}{4}\times \dfrac{7x}{10}=8750$ Rs
$\therefore x=\dfrac{8750\times 4\times 10}{5\times 7}$
$\therefore x=10000$ Rs
$\therefore $ Labelled price is $10000$ Rs
