Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\limits^{1}_0\frac{\log(1+\text{x})}{1+\text{x}^2}\text{ dx}$

Answer

We have,
$\text{I}=\int\limits^{1}_0\frac{\log(1+\text{x})}{1+\text{x}^2}\text{ dx}$
Putting $\text{x}=\tan\theta$
$\text{dx}=\sec^2\theta\text{ d}\theta$
When $\text{x}\rightarrow0;\theta\rightarrow0$
And $\text{x}\rightarrow1;\theta\rightarrow\frac{\pi}{4}$
Now, integral becomes,
$\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\frac{\log(1+\tan\theta)}{\sec^2\theta}\sec^2\theta\text{ d}\theta$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\big[\log(\tan\theta)\big]\text{d}\theta\ ...(\text{i})$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\bigg[\log\Big\{1+\tan\Big(\frac{\pi}{4}-\theta\Big)\Big\}\bigg]\text{d}\theta$ $\Bigg[\because\ \int\limits^{\text{a}}_{0}\text{f(x)}\text{dx}=\int\limits^{\text{a}}_{\text{0}}\text{f}(\text{a}-\text{x})\text{dx}\Bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\Bigg[\log\bigg\{1+\frac{\tan\frac{\pi}{4}-\tan\theta}{1+\tan\frac{\pi}{4}\tan\theta}\bigg\}\Bigg]\text{d}\theta$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\bigg[\log\Big\{1+\frac{1-\tan\theta}{1+\tan\theta}\Big\}\bigg]\text{d}\theta$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\bigg[\log\Big\{\frac{2}{1+\tan\theta}\Big\}\bigg]\text{d}\theta$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\big[\log2-\log(1+\tan\theta)\big]\text{d}\theta\ ...(\text{ii})$
Adding (i) and (ii) we get
$2\text{I}=\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0\big(\log2\big)\text{d}\theta$
$\Rightarrow2\text{I}=\big(\log2\big)\Big[\theta\Big]^{\frac{\pi}{4}}_0$
$\Rightarrow2\text{I}=\frac{\pi}{4}\log2$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{\pi}{8}\log2$
$\therefore\ \int\limits^{1}_0\frac{\log(1+\text{x})}{1+\text{x}^2}\text{ dx}=\frac{\pi}{8}\log2$

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.
