1. Which of the following values is obtained by evaluating \( \int_{0}^{\pi}{\frac{1}{a + \ bcos\ \theta\ }}, \) dθ , a > |b|?
a) \(\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}}\)
b) \(\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{a^{2} – b^{2}}}\)
c) \(\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{b^{2} – a^{2}}}\)
d) \(\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{a^{3}}}\)
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation:\(\int_{0}^{\pi}{\frac{1}{a + b\ cos\theta}\text{dθ}} = \ \frac{1}{2}\int_{0}^{2\pi}{\frac{1}{a + bcos\ \theta}\text{dθ}}\)
\( = \frac{1}{2}\left\lbrack \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{a^{2} – b^{2}}} \right\rbrack\) \( = \frac{\pi}{\sqrt{a^{2} – b^{2}}},\ \ \ a > |b|\)
[∴If f2a-x= fx, then , \( \int_{0}^{2a}{f(x)\ dx = 2\int_{0}^{a}{f(x) dx\rbrack}}\)
[Here,cos 2π-θ =cos θ]

2. Which of the following values is obtained by evaluating \( \int_{0}^{2\pi}{\frac{1}{2 + \cos\theta\ }\text{dθ}}\)?

b) \(\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{3}}\)
c) \(\frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{5}}\)
d) \(\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{5}}\)

Answer:a
Explanation: We know that
\(\int_{0}^{2\pi}{\frac{1}{a + bcos \theta}d\theta = \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{a^{2} – b^{2}}}},\ a > |b|\)
Here, a=2, b=1, 2>|1|
\(\sqrt{a^{2} – b^{2}} = \sqrt{4 – 1} = \sqrt{3}\)
Therefore \(\int_{0}^{2\pi}{\frac{1}{2 + \cos\theta}d\theta = \ \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{3}}}\)

\(\alpha – \beta = \frac{2\sqrt{a^{2} – b^{2}}}{b} = \ \frac{2(3)}{4} = \frac{3}{2}\)
