Question
Evaluate the following definite integrals:
$\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{a}^2\cos^2\text{x}+\text{b}^2\sin^2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{a}^2\cos^2\text{x}+\text{b}^2\sin^2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$ Then,
$\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{a}^2\cos^2\text{x}+\text{b}^2(1-\cos^2\text{x})\big)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\big(\text{b}^2+(\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2)\cos^2\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\Bigg(\text{b}^2+\frac{\big(\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2\big)\big(1+\cos2\text{x}\big)}{2}\Bigg)\text{dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\bigg[\text{b}^2\text{x}+\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{2}\Big(\text{x}+\frac{\sin2\text{x}}{2}\Big)\bigg]_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\text{b}^2\pi}{2}+\frac{\text{a}^2-\text{b}^2}{2}\frac{\pi}{2}+0$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\pi}{4}\big(\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2\big)$

A cooperative society of farmers has $50$ hectares of land to grow two crops $X$ and $Y.$ The profits from crops $X$ and $Y$ per hectare are estimated as $Rs. 10,500$ and $Rs. 9,000$ respectively. To control weeds, a liquid herbicide has to be used for crops $X$ and $Y$ at the rate of $20$ litres and $10$ litres per hectare, respectively. Further not more than $800$ litres of herbicide should be used in order to protect fish and wildlife using a pond which collects drainage from this land. How much land should be allocated to each crop so as to maximise the total profit of the society $? $
