Question
Evaluate: $\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{x\tan x}{\text{sec }x.\text{ cosec }x}\text{ d}x.$

Answer

$\text{Let I}=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\text{x tan x}}{\text{sec x cosec x}}\text{ dx}$
$\therefore\text{ I}=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{(\pi-\text{x})\tan(\pi-\text{x})}{ \sec (\pi-\text{x}) \text{ cosec} (\pi-\text{x})}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{ I}=\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{(\pi-\text{x})\tan\text{x}}{ \sec\text{x}.\text{cosec}\text{ x}}\text{ dx}$
$\text{Adding we ge t, 2I}=\pi\int\limits^\pi_0\frac{\tan\text{x}}{ \sec\text{x}.\text{cosec}\text{ x}}\text{ dx}$
$\text{2I}=\pi\int\limits^\pi_0\sin^2\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$=2\pi\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0\frac{1-\cos2\text{x}}{2}\text{ dx}$
$=\pi\bigg[\Big(\text{x}-\frac{\sin2\text{x}}{2}\Big)\bigg]^{\pi/2}_0$
$=\pi.\frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi^2}{2}\ \ \therefore\ \ \text{I}=\frac{\pi^2}{4}$

A factory manufactures two types of screws A and B, each type requiring the use of two machines, an automatic and a hand-operated. It takes 4 minutes on the automatic and 6 minutes on the hand-operated machines to manufacture a packet of screws ‘A’ while it takes 6 minutes on the automatic and 3 minutes on the hand-operated machine to manufacture a packet of screws ‘B’. Each machine is available for at most 4 hours on any day. The manufacturer can sell a packet of screws ‘A’ at a profit of 70 paise and screws ‘B’ at a profit of Rs. 1. Assuming that he can sell all the screws he manufactures, how many packets of each type should the factory owner produce in a day in order to maximize his profit? Formulate the above LPP and solve it graphically and find the maximum profit.
