Question
Evaluate: $\int\limits_0^{\pi/2} 2 \sin x \cos x \tan^{-1 }(\sin x) dx.$

Answer

$\text{I}=\int\limits_{0}^{\pi/2} 2 \sin x \cos x \tan-1 (\sin x) dx = \int\limits_0^1\tan^{-1}\text{t}\cdot\text{(2t) dt}$
where $\sin x = t =\Bigg[\tan^{-1} t\times\text{t}^{2}\Bigg]_0^1-\int\limits_0^{1}\frac{{t}^{2}}{\text{t}^{2}+1}\text{dt}$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}-\int_0^1\Bigg(1-\frac{1}{\text{t}^{1}+1}\Bigg)\text{dt}$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}-[\text{t - tan}^{-1}\text{t}]^1_0$
$=\frac{\pi}{4}-\Bigg[1-\frac{\pi}{4}\Bigg]$
$=\Bigg(\frac{\pi}{2}-1\Bigg)$.
